• Transactional updates on SUSE Linux Micro, openSUSE MicroOS and Leap Micro: read-only root and reboot-to-activate

  On SUSE's immutable-root products, transactional-update installs changes into a new snapshot of a read-only filesystem instead of touching the running system; nothing takes effect until a reboot activates that snapshot, and a broken update is undone with rollback rather than a package downgrade. On regular SLES the same mechanism exists but is documented as a technology preview for a read-only root, not the default.
