I purchased SuSE 9.1 a coouple of years ago when it was the new release.
Do to my being chicken I held off installing it till about a year ago. I
started playing with it a little bit at a time. I woud like to upgrade
to 10.2, how would I do this?
The differences are too big, I would think. Do a backup of the data and
do a new installation.
There are too many programs that will have been replaced completely.
Also now it will do a seperate /home by default, making it easier for
the future to do new installations and/or install other distributions.
Once you have done this, you can work with it for the next two years.
Then you can do a new installation with the then new version, while
keeping your /home.
