Hi -
It was recommended to me on the Fedora list that I consider upgrading to
CentOS 5 from my present FC5 - the machine is used only as a light-duty
CLI-only server. I have a couple of quick questions in that regard:
1. Is now a bad time to install CentOS 5, what with the root exploit out
and about? Should I wait for a new kernel?
2. I just picked up a Cavalry 1TB external USB HD, the CADB001U32, which
I want to use for backup purposes. I formatted it with one ext3
partition. If I load all my data onto that drive, then upgrade my main
machine to CentOS 5 (which I assume will involve a complete wipe),
should I then be able to mount it and retrieve the data?
Thank you very much.
