The best way I can think of is to create a yum repository with the RPMs
from the 4.8 image on the source server then create yum.repo file on the
destination files and then do a yum update.
There are lots of instructions online how to do it, do a search for
"centos create yum repo iso" or something similar and you will get lots
of hits.
