Hy,
how can i get the beta from opensuse 11.1 dvd.iso without the torrent protocol.
Our firewall let only pass http and ftp…
If you have Alpha2 DVD or iso, you can use “applydeltaiso nameofalplha2.iso nameofalphatobetadelta.iso nameofnew.iso”. It will work with the DVD too, “applydeltaiso /dev/sr0 nameofalphatobetadelta.iso nameofnew.iso” where /dev/sr0 is the path to DVD device.
Start that & go make a pot of coffee:)
openSUSE-11.1-Alpha2_Beta1-DVD-i386.delta.iso is at the link SpiBase presented.
Hy,
thanks for the tip, but for the Alpha2 I have the same proplem I had for the Beta1. I only have a 11.0 DVD
Can I still go up with the deltas?
applydeltaiso 11.0.iso + alpha2.iso -> new1.iso
applydeltaiso new1.iso + beta1.iso -> yougotit.iso
is there no step with alpha1.iso needed?
i cant see alpha1.iso…
No, you will need to start with an 11.1.iso
Yes, I think 11.1 Alpha1 has been taken down as it was pretty raw.
You could delete the 11.0 yast-sources; add the 11.1beta1 link as a yast-source (it alone)
then:
“zypper ref”
“zypper dup”
which is what I did going from alpha1 -> alpha2 -> Beta1
That may take a while depending on how loaded the servers are.
Good luck.
****…
my internet connection at home is to small/slow for the online update, so i need an iso wich I can get only via http or ftp…
so I have to wait until 11.1 is finaly released…
I had another idea with an web-torrent client at http://www2.torrelay.com - but they limit the filesize…
does anybody has another idea???
That’s the method I’m using.
Consider having a pot of coffee (or a two-liter of your favorite soft drink) handy; even with a broadband connection, it takes some time (one thousand eighty packages and nearly a gigabyte of files); due to a hang almost completely through, it’s taking two passes and over two and a half hours. (In my case, it’s both versions of KDE/GNOME/XFCE, the kernel/source/headers, as well as the IDEs and the C/C++/Mono dev tools.)
Definitely not for the bandwidth-challenged.
Index of /distribution/11.1-Beta2/iso
Thats the link
If you have limited bandwidth I would wait untill Monday. The live cd
is due then also the 86-64 is supposedly broken and due Monday also.
For Beta 2 go to ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/distribution/11.1-Beta2/iso/dvd/
