Hello,

Got a question, will CentOS6.1 continue to be supported with updates, or is it mandatory to upgrade to 6.2?

Updates are available for 6.1. Apply them and you have 6.2...

Think of the point releases as a large collection of updates.

Now I understand, I'm currently downloading 254 packages, once it finishes downloading, then i will be using 6.2, presumably i need to reboot the OS. So redhat/centos model works different than Fedoras; where the previous release is still supported for approximately 13 months.

Thanks to everybody for explaining redhat/centos model:-)
