Guest Marco_Fuellemann Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 hi I have Mandrake 9.2 installed, and I want to upgrade to Mandrake10. I started from cd, until I could choose which cds I have. there I wasn't sure if everything was correct, so I pressed the button back. but it started to upgrade my system. so I rebooted my computer. if I now want to make the upgrade again, I can't (Mandrake does not ask, just install is possible). I can still boot 9.2, but the system installed the following packages: rpm-4.2.2-7mdk Sun Jun 6 14:33:08 2004 perl-5.8.3-5mdk Sun Jun 6 14:33:02 2004 perl-base-5.8.3-5mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:58 2004 libbeecrypt6-3.1.0-2mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:57 2004 setup-2.4-3mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:56 2004 popt-1.8.2-7mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:55 2004 gawk-3.1.2-3mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:54 2004 libbzip2_1-1.0.2-17mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:53 2004 elfutils-0.89-3mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:53 2004 bzip2-1.0.2-17mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:53 2004 libelfutils1-0.89-3mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:52 2004 glibc-2.3.3-10mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:37 2004 bash-2.05b-16mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:33 2004 sash-3.6-5mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:32 2004 ldconfig-2.3.3-10mdk Sun Jun 6 14:32:31 2004 how can I tell the installer to upgrade my Mandrake9.2? would it help to downgrade the above listed packages to 9.2? is that possible, because it lists glibc, ldconfig, ..? thanks, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anon Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 I don't know why the upgrade option isn't there, first i have heard of that problem........But upgrading often causes other problems for some people. My advice would be to do the install, and when it gets to the part about "using existings partitions" select the custom (expert) option. Let it format everything except your home partition. that way you will not lose any personal files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 have you tried an expert install? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwiftDeath Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 Maybe add the CDS to your media manager (sources)? Then do URPMI --auto-select --auto? I think that would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
