You can try to install the updates from SL-10.2 development tree. But it
isn't trivial and you'll probably have to update some core parts like
glibc as well. Or you can take the source RPMs from 10.2 and rebuild
them for 10.1 which isn't trivial either. In any case this would be a
completely unsupported and you should verify such upgrade path on a test
system first.

I suggest you better wait for official 10.2 release ;-)
