I am delighted, and somewhat relieved, to finally announce after more than 2 years of transition from our CentOS base, our first BETA release within our “Built on openSUSE” only testing channel.
We are, as yet, not quite at feature parity with our prior CentOS variant (Stable Channel) but getting very close. The intention is to finally offer a Stable Channel rpm for our “Built on openSUSE” rpms once we have this final beta testing phase completed successfully. As always there are wrinkles and one is that our current target disto Leap15.2 is still in beta; but this is our attempt to skate to where the puck is going. There after the testing channel for the Rockstor4 series will settle into the some what non trivial task of dealing with our other outstanding ‘out-of-date’ elements, Python and Django versions mainly, so it will return to being very much more developers only.
This forum thread picks up in part from the following thread but for a wider audience:
But as we still as yet only have private beta testing releases of our new ‘Built on openSUSE’ installer there are sill a few hoops to jump through. Currently they are all still as documented in the above early-adopters post.
And given we are now on the ‘last leg’ of this rather long and drawn out journey I’m also going to pickup from the following thread/post:
Given we are now deviating away from the CentOS base and can finally concentrate fully on our ‘Built on openSUSE’ endeavour; which is the future of the to-be Rockstor4 variant, I’ll begin this beta changelog thread.
Thanks to all those helping to support this endeavour, either via testing/code/doc contributions or via a Stable Channel subscription.
