Upgrading Sunna to *Final* ??

[Bruno]

For those of you who installed Mandriva "Sunna" ( RC2 ) and what to try to upgrade it to what most likely will be the "final" . . . . please let me know.WARNING: There are different commands for i586 and 64bits systems . . . so I need you to tell me what kind of hardware you have before I can post the commands.NOTE: There is no absolute guarantee it indeed will be 2007 final . . . but cooker is frozen and that makes the chance that it is the "final" about 95% ;) BrunoDISCLAIMER: All this is at your own risk . . . . . . LOLPS: There will a way to FTP-install from the "official-tree" later this week, so you could also wait for that oneThere will be revised commands later this week . . . I will post about it when they are ready.#################################################For i586 systems the 3 commands are:WARNING: There are different commands for i586 and 64bits systems . . . What comes next is only for i586 !!

# urpmi.removemedia -a

# urpmi.addmedia --distrib nluug- ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/Mandrakelinux/devel/2007.0/i586/

# urpmi --auto-select --wget

##################################################################################################Here are the 3 commands for 64bits systems:WARNING: There are different commands for i586 and 64bits systems . . . What comes next is only for 64bits !!

# urpmi.removemedia -a

YOU KNOW me brunoOf course I would and Mine ARE 64 Bit systemsExcept Sunna did not install on DESKY because of not finding CUPS during live cd trial I think But we have it on lappy So may even try and install livecd on Desky tooCheera for yearsColin

# urpmi.removemedia -a

Bruno

There has to be more to this than just removing the cooker repository's. I can see how upgrading to the final 2007 would be very handy.

[Bruno]

Okay . . step 2:WARNING: There are different commands for i586 and 64bits systems . . . What comes next is only for 64bits !!

# urpmi.addmedia --distrib nluug- ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/Mandrakelinux/devel/2007.0/x86_64/

Okay . . also on this one we need to do the same thing in about a week from now . . . I will keep you posted ! Bruno

[kamicota]

Righty Ho BrunoLook forward to itWill there be ANY CHANGES when I reboot - remember this Desky is XGL Cheers for yearscolin

[Bruno]

Nope . . you will hardly notice the changes Bruno

[kamicota]

Righty Ho BrunoAlthough I DO see differences between Lappy & DeskySo guess we need BOTH up and running to compare eh Off to DO that now Colin

[kamicota]

Strange BrunoDESKY did NOT give me the same Kmenus as Lappy Desky which was Mona NOW RETAINS it's Start/Programs as before NO Separate - Graphics OR the cumbersome ALL programs under system Ie System retains Termina/Configuration/Archiving etc etc And Lappy shows splash Boot as mandriva ONE while Desky shows it as mandriva FREEOh well November's Child will have to be more PATIENT won't he Cheers for yearsColin

[Bruno]

This is Colin, because you used the DVD for one install and the One Live CD for the other install.Also: we are not there yet . . . . we are just trying to keep the installs as close to the "final" as we possibly can, this will mean we have to do similar commands once or twice a week to make sure we have the lastest packages. Then the day the "real final" will be up the mirrors we will only have a few more updates left to bring it to the same level.Anyway this all is just an experiment . . . we want to see if it is possible to avoid a fresh install and get from "RC2" to "Official" without messing up our system :DB) Bruno

[kamicota]

You May be right BrunoFor the life of me I FORGET which way I installed mandriva to the DESKY And as you OBVIOUSLY REALISE I do NOT Mind a NEW INSTALL either Cheers for yearsColin
