Migrating from RHEL 4 to CentOS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



You just need the centos-release rpm, yum and yum-conf rpms.  You may have
to force the centos-release install.  Import the GPG key from a mirror and
then run 'yum update'.  The Centos rpms are already stripped of Redhat
trademark issues.

Subject:  Migrating from RHEL 4 to CentOS


Hello,
I'm thinking about migrating from RHEL 4 to CentOS. Is there a document that
provide pointer / guidance for doing that ? or is this document:
http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=19
relevant enough to follow in my situation ?

I understand that I should probably strip the install of any RedHat images,
trademark, etc, as to not infringing any copyright. So I am wondering if
there's a list of things to do / document to show that. 

My current installation is:

$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 (Nahant Update 1)

Thanks for any help / pointer.

RDB
