how to upgrade to final version from Beta?

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

Hello,

I’m using LEAP 15.3 Beta in my Laptop now. May I ask is it possible to upgrade to LEAP 15.3 Final Release version later, when it is available, without re-install the entire system again?
Will it be easy as “zypper update”?

Thank you.

Use

zypper dup

when the final release is out. Use it just the one time, to sychronize your system with the final release. After that, handle updates in the way that you usually do.

Hi!
trying to upgrade a 15.3 rc to current 15.3 with

  • zypper refresh
  • zypper dup
    and reboot

and then

  • zypper refresh gives me a
    …" Update repro of openSUSE Backports is invalid "
    so disable the backport repo and again:

  • zypper refresh

  • zypper up

ended with:
… Nothing to do

But yast-online-update shows a lot ‘unresovable’ (i try ‘resove’ this - do not ask ;;((( )
then i restart with a full-clone and
check nessesary active repos with a fresh installed 15.3 final to get repo list:

 
 1 | openSUSE-Leap-15.3-1      | openSUSE-Leap-15.3-1               | Ja        | ( p) Ja         | Ja

  • harmonize the 15.3 rc repo list from

to nessasary entrys with

 
 zypper mr --disable repo-backports-update
 zypper mr --disable repo-sle-update

now refresh repos seems working, zypper up has nothing to do and yast online update shows no unresolvabe.

hopefully no messages are good messages - i’ll post result on incomming new patches.

You should not be getting that. Perhaps you are being redirected to a bad mirror.

That repo looks fine here. Wait a few hours, then try again.
