New migration tool for Leap
an invention by lkocman
Updated 10 months ago. 3 hacker ♥️. 3 followers.

Update

I will call a meeting with other interested people at 11:00 CET https://meet.opensuse.org/migrationtool

Description

SLES 16 plans to have no yast tool in it. Leap 16 might keep some bits, however, we need a new tool for Leap to SLES migration, as this was previously handled by a yast2-migration-sle

Goals

A tool able to migrate Leap 16 to SLES 16, I would like to cover also other scenarios within openSUSE, as in many cases users would have to edit repository files manually.

  • Leap -> Leap n+1 (minor and major version updates)
  • Leap -> SLES docs
  • Leap -> Tumbleweed
  • Leap -> Slowroll
  • Leap Micro -> Leap Micro n+1 (minor and major version updates)
  • Leap Micro -> MicroOS

Hackweek 24 update

Marcela and I were working on the project from Brno coworking as well as finalizing pieces after the hackweek. We've tested several migration scenarios and it works. But it needs further polishing and testing.

Projected was renamed to opensuse-migration-tool and was submitted to devel project https://build.opensuse.org/requests/1227281

Repository

https://github.com/openSUSE/opensuse-migration-tool

Out of scope is any migration to an immutable system. I know Richard already has some tool for that.

      Packaged and submitted to Base:System https://build.opensuse.org/requests/1227281

      Project was renamed to opensuse-migration-tool which was a better fit and more self-explanatory name https://github.com/openSUSE/opensuse-migration-tool#

    Create openSUSE images for Arm/RISC-V boards by avicenzi

    Project Description

    Create openSUSE images (or test generic EFI images) for Arm and/or RISC-V boards that are not yet supported.

    Goal for this Hackweek

    Create bootable images of Tumbleweed for SBCs that currently have no images available or are untested.

    Consider generic EFI images where possible, as some boards can hold a bootloader.

    Document in the openSUSE Wiki how to flash and use the image for a given board.

    Boards that I have around and there are no images:

    • Rock 3B
    • Nano PC T3 Plus
    • Lichee RV D1
    • StartFive VisionFive (has some image needs testing)
