You need to use yum and the protectbase plugin. With protectbase installed and configured, you can run yum update and have core packages protected. http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum (look at protectbase on that Page) You can also easily do: yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=repo1 (yum_commands) (you can use the repo name inside the [] in the repo file for this) Apt is included as an option for i386 only, but yum is the recommended way.
