Has anyone upgraded to SuSE 7.0 by any chance?
I had lots of problems with the upgrade from 6.4. I have sent a couple
emails to SuSE tech support with no replies yet - except their standard
auto-reply's.
I upgraded with SuSE Professional 7.0. (Yeah I know $69 is alot of
money...)
Any help anyone can give would be greatly apprieciated.
Issues:
1)After the upgrade whenever I reboot or boot the system I keep
getting the yast script saying that it needs to run some scripts and
if they should not be interupted and then allows me to log in. When I
reboot/boot the system every time this happens.
2) When I try to go into Xwindows by using "startx" as usual I get
this error message "/usr/X11R6/bin/startx: xinit: command not found" I
tried to locate "xinit" myself and could not find it.
3)Durring Shutdown I am now getting the following error message
durring shutdown "/usr/sbin/httpd no such file or directory".
I tried re-running the install/upgrade twice and these errors keep
happening.
I had the upgrade install the pentium optimized kernal - I will
re-build my custome kernal later.
I did back up my /etc, /root, /home directories prior to running the
upgrade.
