Rocks 5.4 is not a recompile of CentOS 5, it uses CentOS as its base
distribution, and add configuration, database, tools, MPI, batch job
scheduler etc..., for HPC calculation.
As a yum update may break the configuration, /etc/yum.repos.d/ is empty
by default.
I use myself Rocks, an I populate /etc/yum/repos.d/ by copying what I
have on other CentOS workstations, but avoid to do any update.
With Rocks, you do update by upgrading to the newest version (which
would be Rocks 5.5, based on CentOS 5.6...).
