Hi,
having running centOS-4.4 on a really fast machine (16 GB memory, 8 Opteron CPU's, SATA drives). Then making an update by using the Centos-5 CD's. The start was fast, but during update, the installer spents a very, very long wallclock time during selinx updating: for about 1/2 hour the updater runs in a restorecon/find sequence.
And at the end, before the MBR is written, it spents again a long time in "install".
Can somebody explain this?
Regards

Did the upgrade eventually finish ok?

As the SELinux model (and policies) seem to have changed pretty much between 4.4 and 5, I'm not really astonished by this relabeling.

What do you mean "in install"?
Cheers,

The program "install" is running for a long time too (inside of the installer).
