Are you saying that simply running "yum update" on a Centos-5.1 system will convert it to Centos-5.2, as and when that is released?

At this very moment, if I do "yum update" on my 5.1 home server, it tells me that it will get upgraded to 5.2 if I hit the "Y" key.

I won't do that yet, I need to be physically there to babysit it, there are way too many hacks and moving parts on that machine.

What I did last time around, and will probably repeat on critical machines:

yum install yum-downloadonly (if you haven't already) yum -y --downloadonly update (can run unattended)

yum upgrade (babysit - but you don't have to wait for the download) reboot (babysit)
