“I installed SuSE 6.2 two ways. First I did a New Installation
writing over everything that was already installed. The second
time, I first reinstalled SuSE 6.1 and then did an UPGRADE to SuSE
6.2.”

“In summary I would say that SuSE 6.2 Version fixes errors and
adds options via the 2.2.10 Kernel but if you are running without
any problems and don’t plan on adding any hardware that the 2.2.7
Kernel cannot handle, then perhaps staying with SuSE 6.1 is your
best bet. Heck you will save 50.00 but then 50.00 isn’t much to
stay current is it!”
