Is there a script available for upgrade from 4 to 5? I have tried it on one TEST computer following what I thought were the instructions and after the update I still had 2.6.9 kernel not the 2.6.18. I looked in grub.conf and there were no 2.6.18 kernels.
Just wonder if someone has automated this process?
Thanks,
Jerry

Jerry: As I recall, neither Upstream or CentOS suggests Upgrading from 4.x to 5.x Your results might be good, but, you might have a lot of issues after the Upgrade. Best to backup and do a clean install and then restore your data. Lanny

And if you really *must* upgrade, an anaconda upgrade (boot from CD/DVD) usually worksat least slightly better than trying a yum upgrade.
