Hello,
I installed CentOS 4.4 (for the first time) around a month ago (minimal install) and I just typed "yum update".
I was surprised to see a big list of updates and feared an upgrade to centos 4.5 or 5.0 so I stopped the process with CTRL+C.
What could I do to check everything is ok and stay with CentOS release 4.4 ?
Thanks in advance,

its 4.5, which is simply CentOS 4 w/ all available updates as of right now. This is no different than a RHEL 4 system, install any update level, if you run `up2date -u`, you'll end up with the latest update plus any post-update hotfixes.

You can't, at least if you want security and reliability updates. Yum proposes to upgrade so many packages, because CentOS 4.5 is out. Browse the list archive of the last few days for more information, as this has been asked a few times now.

Thanks for this clarification (and sorry for the list pollution).
