This is the fifth of a series of eight separate posts, with a list of the SLS “How-To” wiki’s, that we have tentatively reviewed (internally) and hope the new merged forum members/mods, … etc … selectively move to the openSUSE wiki. (Note this list was initially posted internal to SLS).
This list was initially refered to from here:
WIKI MIGRATION - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED !! - openSUSE Forums
The original SLS wiki’s are here:
SuSELinuxSupport: HowTos
Some of these HOW-TO’s are quite old and not so useful (or are obsolete). Others are old and still very current, and some are relatively new and up to date.
I hope sometime after the merge, to post these lists (or an agreed edit subset of these lists) to the general forum membership, and get their views/help in the migration of the SLS wiki’s. Of course this is simply my view, and discussion and comments on this is most welcome.
So below is the fifth of a series of eight posts.
