I was just wondering if it would be possible to keep the current server [RH9] up and install the updates that are found in FC2 [kernel, packages, etc] while the os is running or through the shell if you shutdown X. I'm sure there is some way to do it as there have been servers that run for years and they would have to update packages...but the kernel? I would believe there is some way...
