Hi

It has taken some time before we were able to rebuild a new system with a different starting image to see if the problems we had started with the used iso.

I now have built the system using openSUSE-13.1-ppc64-NET-ppc64-Build0040-Media.iso.
The problem with sudo is disappeared, so we can use active directory and sudo on the system. mysql hasn't been tested yet, I will try that this week.

So my main problem seems to have changed... is there a way to 'update' the original system, so it uses the prekernel or so from this image instead of the original iso, or do i have to rebuild the complete system (running as a monitoring server with almost 7000 checks...)

Grtz
