installed 12.2 with Grub as 12.3 can not use my raid0 array.
installed all updates 12.2
installed kde4 10.2
installed latest kernel 3.5.8.x
installed nvidia driver 319.12
installed printing
installed libre office latest
installed vlc from download.videolan.org/pub/pub/pub/videolan/vlc/SuSe/12.2
then changed every entry in Yast configured Software Repositories from 12.2 to 12.3
then you have a form of control that the changed repositories exists
Then the update to 12.3
in Yast Software Manager view - repositories @System that is all what is installed
do a update All in the list / update if newer version available
this took 1/3 of the time to download the 12.3 iso
Then the moment of truth
REBOOT
12.3 is up and running
2 problems for changing runlevels in yast that depends on boot.localfs and boot.rootfsck which are not in init.d
I found them on internet with google search
make them with editor cut and paste from internet page
put them in /etc/init.d reboot
now you can change runlevels
that are the problems i found.
Exept the black outlook from Plymouth every thing is running the same way as 12.2
12.3 is a fraction slower in changing from boot to starting kde4
in 12.2 kde4 was started as boot was not finished so to speak
in 12.3 the boot proces has to be ended to start kde4 that is the delay i think
So in my view of things 12.3 is a minor upgrade to 12.2

Advice to any reader: don’t do any of this.

Oh my!
12.3 does not have those files, and that is intentional. You are
breaking your system. That it runs at all is merest luck.

Not in heavy math, code is known to run even 7 times slower (libm fault).
However, if his system behaves badly after the upgrade, compared to a
clean install, it is because he did not do the upgrade in the documented
and recommended manner. 3 docs, two methods:

Only for some edge cases, in general that affects only software which
needs to calculate excessive amounts of sines, cosines, exp’s. This is a
very rare case, usually that part of programs is a microscopic fraction
of the arithmetic done and general arithmetic and its optimizations are
not affected.
I do a lot of numeric calculations and in general the difference between
12.2 and 12.3 is exactly zero (of course since that only depends on the
optimization capabilities of the compiler and how optimized the fft,
blas and son libraries are which you use and not on glibc functions).

It seems to be some specific functions, yes. I have not seen a list of
affected functions, and how much each of them.
Yes, libm can be used by any standard application, but not many do those
operations in such a number as to be noticed.

libm4 is not installed
on this system akonadi is not running nepomuk is not runing
this system is more like a chromebook
none of the bloated akonadi nepomuk kde programs is used
most programs i use run within the google browser so less overhead
gkrellm to check the inner working of the system and sensors
dit not install pulse audio thats good for gnome users
printing through HPLIB and google drive ( 2 tablets)
only 5 widgets cwp cpufreqdisplay clock network monitor Py Chasew
and to boot.localfs an boot.rootfsck have both chmod a+x
and are set B in runlevels
Why is there no tool to manage sytemd systemctl is funny to see but if you have no idea what systemd is then systemctl is one big questionmark
even systemadm does not do the job
thats why i say 12.3 is a minor upgrade
the real work has to be done before 13.1
so as a upgrade 12.3 can be a testbed
found 2 scripts nearbij systemd that enable a few services if i dont need them then how to get rid of them
It’s about libm, i.e. the system’s math library, not libm4…

Well, enabling/disabling services in YaST Runlevel does still work.
And to be able to see the runlevel controls you need to have an /etc/inittab which isn’t there by default (you can copy it over from 12.2, f.e.).
I’m not sure how much effect the runlevel selection has, though…
I wouldn’t exactly call it “madness”. I guess it’s ignored by systemd anyway. (can’t check right now, though)
YaST’s runlevel control will magically appear if you copy it over.
But I didn’t want to suggest this **should **be done.
It is installed for sure! Otherwise your system wouldn’t even boot.
Hint: It’s in the glibc package and installed in /lib (or /lib64 if you’re on 64bit)…
I wouldn't exactly call it "madness". I guess it's ignored by systemd anyway. (can't check right now, though)
YaST's runlevel control will magically appear if you copy it over.
without them you cannot change runlevels yast is complaining localfs is not there
put boot.localfs in then its complaining rootfsk is not there
thats why i put them in and everything works as it should

this is just a few lines futher in boot.log
The raid array was made in 12.2 and fstab is also from 12.2
12.3 cant handle it so to see
so what has to be altered to boot without these messages?
The names the raid array has are as named in the top half
what systemd expects is not the same
And that is also the trouble installing 12.3 on this mobo
what you define is not the same as he uses so format goes beyond the end of patition
