You almost always want to replace the contents of /etc/redhat-release with the same contents of that file from the 'other EL'... I'm not sure what the proper contents are on EL3, but on my Centos 4: # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 2) # cat /etc/centos-release CentOS release 4.2 (Final) Makes the HP installers much, much happier.
