It was easier upgrading from disc than unstable network
- Download DVD ISO Centos 5.4 from centos.org
- Upgrade from DVD
1 | # mount /dev/dvd /media/cdrom |
2 | # yum upgrade --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=c5-media |
Be patient and wait until it finished
1 | # reboot |
Now you’ve got a nice fresh centos 5.4
1 | # cat /etc/redhat-release |
2 | CentOS release 5.4 (Final) |
done
Hi
Thank you for showing how to upgrade from a DVD.
But I am confused about the process.
You installed from the 5.3 DVD, but after the installation and reboot, it became 5.4. Was there a typo here?
I have a CentOS 5.2 machine. Do I need to upgrade 5.2 to 5.3, then to 5.4? Or I could directly go from 5.2 to 5.4?
Thanks a lot
i'm sorry, actually upgrade from DVD will result v. 5.3.i was upgrading via network repository after that. my mistake ,sorry for confusion
May i know how do you display the command above in code format? what plugin do you use?
