No. When CentOS-6 is released, a yum update on a CentOS-5 box won't update you to 6. You will be able to use yum to update, but it won't be a supported method, much like with Fedora. There are folks here who have updated from Fedora 1 all the way through Fedora 11 using yum. It's possible with a little effort, but it's not supported. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Process and Procedure are the last hiding place of people without the wit and wisdom to do their job properly.
