I am testing the likelyhood of updating a couple RH9 systems to centos 5 386. I found at document that talked about updating to centos 4. steps being: 1.) backup 2.) rpm --import http://pubmirrors.reflected.net/centos/5/os/i386/RPM-GPG-KEY-centOS-5 rpm -Uvh --nodeps http://pubmirrors.reflected.net/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/yum-3.0.5-1.el5.cent... rpm -i --nodeps --force http://pubmirrors.reflected.net/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/centos-release-5-1.0... yum upgrade
Everything was progressing until I did tte "yum upgrade" I got an error about not finding a yum package.
"There was a problem importing one of the python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was: No module named yum"
What do I do now...
Thanks,
There are significant changes in the kernel, software, ext3 etc. The only way I would trust an update from RHL-9 to EL-5 would be to do a DVD upgrade... and then I would probably say its faster to do a new install and reinstall old software.
