\t\t\t\tMy major goal these day is “updating my CV<\/em>” \u2013 but because of how my CV is built (in a very special XML dialect with a very special authoring and publishing software), I usually want to run it in a rather up-to-date OS environment \u2013 in order to be able to replace outdated and non-working pieces, therefore:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. OS\u00a0update of the \u00a0VM (ie. openSUSE \u2013 actually I do consider replacing it by SLES)<\/li>\n
  2. updating the CV authoring software<\/li>\n
  3. updating my CV<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Installing resp. upgrading openSUSE Linux (for now simply “installing<\/em>“):<\/p>\n

      \n
    • it does look lean and slick to install openSUSE Linux from the “Network<\/em>” DVD image (“downloads the installation system and all packages from online repositories<\/em>“), but it takes hours to install over the network, even if that is rather fast<\/li>\n
    • downloading the “complete DVD<\/em>” does not take hours, and installing from the “complete DVD<\/em>” is far faster than installing over the network<\/li>\n
    • this time I am installing over the network, but in the future I am going to try the “complete DVD<\/em>” approach<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Update 2014-07-16: This upgrade (12.3->13.1) was also a migration x86->x64, also concerning VirtualBox a little \u2013 but .
      \nIt looks, as if this was my smoothest migration in years.<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Virtual Desktops got preserved<\/li>\n
      • the home banking Java software works w\/o changes<\/li>\n
      • Emacs still works<\/li>\n
      • \u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
