Guckt mal! <3

Eine originalverpackte #SuSE #Linux 8.1 Professional-Box auf #Deutsch aus dem Jahre 2002!

Heute von eBay angekommen. :3

Mein Plan ist es jetzt, meinen Laptop von 2001, das Fujitsu #Lifebook E6550, mit dieser Version einzurichten und damit ein authentisches, zeitgenössisches Retro-Linux-System auszuprobieren.

Das ganze dann als (deutsches) Unboxing-Video für #PeerTube. :)

Look what arrived!

An original, sealed box release of #SuSE #Linux 8.1 Professional, from the year 2002!

I grabbed it off of eBay for a small price and it arrived quickly.

My plan is to take my 2001 laptop, the Fujitsu #Lifebook E6550, and without using the internet and just by consulting the manual and disks in the box, set up an authentic contemporary Linux system.

... as an #LGR-style video for #PeerTube!

@itsfoss I thought it is an effort that is supported by EU politicians and/or staff but not officially recognized as the one true EU solution yet.

I love #Redhat but I wonder as well whether #suse or #kde's own distro wouldn't be the better choice. They might still end up using Fedora for the time being as there are some situations in which higher quality might be more important than local development.

I'll continue to stay on the #debian+#kde path.

1. As an employee of #SUSE, I need to mention that we actually have one completely European enterprise Linux distribution with over thirty [!] years of experience. We are perfectly ready to serve anybody who wants to switch from any US-centric distro.

2. Even if you don’t want to pay for it, I don’t think #Debian (although SPI is American), or #Ubuntu are exactly slaves to US whims (and I don’t even know what is a domicile of #Arch). And, of course, #openSUSE is gratis as well.

Hello Linux enthusiasts - we've asked for your favorite Linux distro , but now I want to know - what features of your Linux distro make you stay with that distribution? Is it the package manager, the simplicity, the software (or software choices), or even the UI? We would love to know!

I have successfully migrated a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP6 in-place to openSUSE Leap 15.6. The whole thing was done on a Raspberry Pi 3, hence based on the aarch64 CPU architecture.

There was not much to do and the whole procedure went without any problems.

If you are interested, here is a short guide:

1\ Unregister the system and delete all local registration information.

# SUSEConnect --de-register
# SUSEConnect --cleanup
# zypper clean all
# rm -rf /var/cache/zypp

2\ Now delete /etc/zypp and replace it with a version from an openSUSE server. Don't forget to adapt the repos to your requirements.

3\ Time for the migration!

# zypper --releasever=15.6 ref
# zypper --releasever=15.6 dup --allow-vendor-change
# unlink /etc/products.d/baseproduct
# ln /etc/products.d/Leap.prod /etc/products.d/baseproduct

4\ Thats it, reboot!

Another day SUSE Hack Week, another recap: dominik.wombacher.cc/posts/sus
The time I could invest today was pretty limited. I focused on further Architecture improvements. And started with the pagure ci plugin implementation. It's in an early stage but I'm confident that there is more to demonstrate tomorrow.

My Project: AWS CodePipeline CI plugin for pagure on code.opensuse.org (hackweek.opensuse.org/projects)
