Online upgrade from 15.6 to slowroll - question about grub-bls

English Install/Boot/Login
1

I want to upgrade my 15.6 desktop to slowroll because 15.6 is EOL now.

on systems where I installed slowroll from scratch from the ISO, it installed grub-bls which puts the kernel files under /boot/efi instead of just /boot.

the problem is that my 15.6 system only has .5 GB for /boot/efi which I think used to be the default. my other slowroll systems seem to use at least 1GB.

if I try to upgrade the system using either the ‘opensuse-migration-tool’ method or the ISO, will it keep my grub setup or will it try to switch to grub-bls?

a quick check of the migration tool doesn’t show it doing anything special about grub.

thanks

The migration tool can‘t change your bootloader setup. That means, after migration, your used bootloader will be the same as before.

If you use the ISO, you can choose whatever you want at the installation summary page of the installer.
