The default kernel runs on some older hardware as well but the x86 version does not handle more than 4 GB.

One more question, what is the difference between desktop and default kernel versions ?

Just edit each entry so it matches what was posted above

You can find that info at this post – of course you will need to change all URLs pointing from "factory" to the ones above.

that worked for me like a charme as I've updatet one of my openSUSE 11.1 to factory and another to 11.2 RC1. There are already repos online if you like to update the RC2-stuff to more recent versions like KDE 4.3.2 – for that I have also put these repos via YaST
– KDE 4.3.2 http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE%3a/43/openSUSE_11.2/
– KDE 3.5.10.x http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE%3a/KDE3/openSUSE_11.2/
( I needed this for some special purpose )
– Mozilla Buildservice http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_11.2/
– Mozilla:Beta http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla%3a/beta/openSUSE_11.2/
( in my case for testinf Mozilla Prism )
– VideoLan Repository http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/SuSE/11.2/
( for VLC )
– Packman Repository http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/packman/suse/11.2/

so far,
just have fun 🙂

What is the recommended way of doing it ?

Thanks.
