[CentOS-announce] CentOS 4 x86_64 - CentOS 4.1 x86_64 is available

[Johnny Hughes]

CentOS 4.1 x86_64 is now available on the mirrors.  CentOS 4.1 is just a
re-spun ISO containing all updates through June, 10th 2005, (include all
those released in EL4 Update 1).  If you already have CentOS 4.0,
downloading the new ISOs is not required to update to CentOS 4.1.

The ISOs can be downloaded via Bittorrent from this directory:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.1/isos/x86_64/

(or your closest mirror)

You can upgrade CentOS 4.0 to 4.1 manually now by changing the
file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo file and replacing $releasever
with 4.1 on all the repos and running "yum upgrade".

If you don't want to manually edit anything now, in about 1 week
CentOS-4.1 x86_64 will automatically be made the default version and you
will be upgraded when you run yum any time after that.

Here are the CentOS-4.1 release notes detailing differences between
CentOS-4.1 and the publically available upstream sources:
