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.
