Patch for mgaapplet to trigger upgrade from Mageia 1 to Cauldron
Instructions to be added to wiki.
For early testing of upgrading from Mageia 1 to Cauldron
- Start with a fully up-to-date Mageia 1 system with
the patch package installed.
- Download the attached patch
- As root run "patch -p0 mgaapplet.patch"
- As regular user run "killall mgaapplet" followed by
"mgaapplet --testing".
I'll update the wiki after I retest the procedure, just
to be sure it works ok. I've run it once so far, but
due to some problems that caused me to change the patch,
I'll retest it, starting with a clean Mageia 1 install.
