I have one encrypted partition that was created under SuSE 9.2. After a fresh install of 9.3 (not an update) the mounting of that partition during bootup failed. I could, however, still mount it manually later using another loopdevice. To fix this, I had to change the encryption algorithm in /etc/cryptotab from twofish256 to twofishSL92. More detailed information.

Press the PrtSc button (somewhere near PageUp/Down) to capture the whole screen and Alt PrtSc to capture the active window only. Then Open Paint (from Programs, Accessories), paste and save.

1. Dump the database data mysqldump --host=localhost --user=root -p journal >journal.sql
2. Create the databse on the new machine mysql -u root -p CREATE DATABASE journal;
3. Import the data into the database mysql -p -h localhost journal < journal.sql
4. Create the user 'journal' GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'journal'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'journal' WITH GRANT OPTION;
