   Sorry, but by definition, if you pass the installation screen, you are   
   not doing an update.   
      
   There are two recognized methods:   
      
     Online Upgrade: change the repos and run zypper dup.   
      
     Offline Upgrade:  Boot the installation media, and on the first menu   
   choose "upgrade existing system".

   Cheers, Carlos.
