At least one is to put the whole installation tree on some machine, replace all outdated packages by their updates, generate new 'base/hdlist*' files using 'genhdlist' utility (you will find that among anaconda tools), setup this machine as an installation server and install over a network from it. You will get whatver versions you dropped there. This is enough of work that for a single machine it will be surely quicker and faster to install whatever was in a release and immediately update it. 'yum' will pick up the latest versions from whatever you will point it so you do not have to be particularly careful about removing obsoletes. But if you have multiple machines to install then trade-offs may look differently. Michal -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
