I've been following the faq for moving from whitebox to centos (which admittedly is for release 3, but using the equivalent release 4 files) and keep getting stuck when installing the centos-release-4-2.1 rpm which says it should replace whitebox-release4.2
However this is not happening, giving me the following
rpm -Uvh http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/centos-r elease-4-2.1.i386.rpm Retrieving http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/centos-r elease-4-2.1.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: /etc/whitebox-release is needed by (installed) initscripts-7.93.11.EL-1.WB1.i386
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nick
Try downloading the initscripts for Centos and install it at the same time. I've had to --force the -release rpm before too.
