Decided to upgrade to 7.x.
It's been a good ride 6.x, but you're living in the past.
Everything is backed up, just waiting on my new 4TB HD to arrive for a fresh install.
See ya'll on the other side!!
I just built a brand new Centos 7 machine for a friend this weekend. I did a net install. All went well once I figured my way through the installer. It took me a while to find the button that I need to click to turn on the network connection.
Actually, I've been running a centos 7 vm for a couple months now on a 6.8 system with no problems. Just been scared to do a fresh install because it can't be upgraded from 6.8.
I'm saving the old HD just in case I need to revert back.
This will be the first time in 20 yrs that I'll try 'custom' partitioning. I've always gone the default route. I want to setup extra space/partition for backups until I can build a stand alone NAS.
I hope all my config files in 6.8 work in 7.3.
If you are running httpd, you are likely going to need to modify the config files.

But there are many other apache 2.2 to 2.4 upgrading help sites available.
