Howdy everyone,
Previously it was a three step process to upgrade from CentOS Linux 8 (CL8) to CentOS Stream 8 (CS8). We have reduced it to a two step process by adding the centos-stream-repos package to the Extras repo in CL8. You can now upgrade from CL8 to CS8 by running just these two commands.
[root@centos ~]# dnf swap centos-linux-repos centos-stream-repos [root@centos ~]# dnf distro-sync
The instructions have been updated on the main website. I recorded a short screencast to demonstrate the process.
