I'm glad to announce SUSE Linux 10.1 Codename "Agama Lizard" RC1. We've created on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/install/10.1/SUSE-Linux10.1-R... (and on the mirrors of it) a repository with some non-OSS software. The same software is also available via two non-OSS CDs that can be used during installation as Add-On Media. There's one media for both i386 and x86-64 (SUSE-Linux-10.1-RC1-Addon-BiArch) and one for PowerPC (SUSE-Linux-10.1-RC1-Addon-ppc). Please read the complete list of Known Issues at: http://www.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs We will make sometime next week an RC2 - and only distribute the delta ISOs of any RCs, and update the factory tree as well. Have a lot of fun! Andreas PS: Here're all the details for downloading: SUSE Linux 10.1 is offered via bittorrent and via normal download. Please use a mirror or the download.opensuse.org URL which directs you to a mirror. The distribution comes with 5 CDs. You need: * CD1 only for a minimal text installation (English) * CDs 1-3 for a default KDE or GNOME installation in German or English * All CDs for other selections Download URLs for the torrents of the DELTA-ISOs: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1-RC1/SUS... http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1-RC1/SUS... http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1-RC1/SUS...

SUSE Linux 10.1 RC1 released

Does anyone know whether upgrading from older SUSE versions (9.1) will be problem-free, given that they have ripped out the old software package management and replaced it internally with Red Carpet (?? is this so ??)

Regarding the update issue, the best thing would be wait a few days after 10.1 final, and look at the release notes/ read the mailinglist.. But in my experiences, updates works bests if you update from the previous version, e.g. 10.0. This should be also the best tested case. An upgrade (server system) from 9.1 to 10.0 worked also fine for me, but YMMW.And to the package management problems: Quote from Opensuse announce "We're replacing our package manager resolver library with a new version called "libzypp". libzypp is the integration of SUSE's yast2 Package manager and Ximian's libredcarpet. At Novell we used two solutions so far - Red Carpet and YaST package manager - and decided to merge both in a best of breed approach."
