Upgrading openSUSE 13.1 to openSUSE 13.2

Some days ago was release a new version of openSUSE with a huge list of new feature.

1. Install all open updates of your actual system before starting to upgrade

1

zypper up

1.1 Optional reboot before go on

1

init 6

2. Change the 13.1 in the Repository names and links URLs to 13.2:

1

/etc/zypp/repos.d/*.repo

3. Refresh repositories after renaming

1

zypper refresh

4. Start distribution upgrade:

1

zypper dup

5. Make sure your system will really boot (i had some problems with my virtual machines)

1

grub2-install --recheck --no-floppy /dev/sdX

After upgrade, the grub bootloader screen is showing the new logo with the version opensuse 13.1, instead of 13.2. It’s not a bug its a feature…
