I currently have OpenSUSE 10.2 and I’d like to upgrade to 11.0 using a clean install. However I’ll probably be buying 11.0 from the suseshop and would like to know whether it’ll be possible (or whether it’s an unknown) to then upgrade to 11.1 when its out, without having to do a clean install? This is so I don’t have to then buy 11.1 as well a few months later.
On this blog (The low down on openSUSE 11.0 « The Blog is Hot…) it says: “most notably the new ‘zypper dup’ feature - which performs an online dist-upgrade, meaning you’ll be able to upgrade openSUSE 11.0 to 11.1 without downloading media.”.
Blogs aren’t always known to be the most accurate of places to find information so I’d like to check whether that is true.
Thanks for any help.
