I installed centos 6.5 from a dvd. Now that 7 is out, I'l like to try it. I tried:

sudo yum clean all && sudo yum update

but it said there were no updates. Is there a command-line way to upgrade from 6.5 to 7?

yum update will only update packages in the current version, not switch to a completely new version.

7 is structurally different enough, with systemd and so forth, that you will want to do a virgin fresh install.

Can't locate it today, but I found info earlier that there would be a 6.5->7.0 upgrade path at some point in the future. Sounded pretty much like the old Fedora preupgrade + something like fedup.
