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.

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.
