[sle-beta] : Migrating from SLE 12 to SLE 15 SP1 Beta X

[Waite, Dick (External)]

Evening Jiri,

Happy to hear that, but in the good words of: 

https://www.suse.com/betaprogram/sle-beta/#faq-update2

Last Update: 2018-12-14

In the FAQ section you have:

'''''''
Migrating from SLE 12 to SLE 15 SP1 Beta X

We have made the necessary changes to our SCC Online Channels setup for SLE 15 SP1 to allow beta testing the migration to SLE15 SP1.

.....

and me being me, ummm that looks interesting lets try. I have not made a bug report...

I'm a bit dead in the water with bug 1119779 which is stopping any SLES15 SP-0 to SP1- Beta1.... So I was looking around to see what else I could try...

I'm off to Ireland for Christmas on Friday so I hope when I return Jan 2nd my bug will give me new life...

Wishing you all a very interesting Charismas and a grand slide into 2019.

__R

Hello Dick,

you cannot use zypper to migrate between codestreams (which means from
SLE12 to SLE15 independently on the service pack). To do that, you need
to boot the SLE15 installation media and choose Upgrade from the boot
menu (or do whaterver is necessary in your environment).
