I've seen only a few posts on successful upgrades

10.0 to opensuse 10.2, anyone have any further

plunge"?
Yes, I do have a complete backup made in case it
goes foobar.

Hi,
I just went ahead and did it a couple of days ago.
In fact, I did NOT upgrade
my DELL laptop (M90 Precision), I just installed it
over SuSE10 - but WITHOUT
formatting my /home partition.
It worked flawlessly well.
I then re-installed, either from old downloads or
new ones, a few of my very
much used programmes, i.e. zend, datafold and
others.
The only hitch I had was smbmount not being there.
This list advised me to use
cifs instead to mount my VPN remote samba shares.
That worked perfectly fine
too.
YMMV though :-)

The upgrade went extremely_smoothly! Better than
anything from Microsoft. It did delete some programs
I had installed myself like ncftp client but
re-installing those was trival. Also, had to
reinstall mplayer and update w32codecs so I could play
mp3's. Looking good so far.
Smart-gui isnt working well so I'm just using yast to
install software from sources. No problems there.

So far I have updated two machines from 10.1 to 10.2. Everything worked
pretty much flawlessly, except I had to perform the upgrade in text
mode. The only big headache I had was getting a set of repositories
together for the packages I use for 10.2 - now that that is done, using
smart works great, and I have been able to upgrade everything I use.
