Hi all - I am new to the Red Hat scene, and I'm a bit confused by the upgrade and support system. It's a bit hard to tell what's going on by looking at the web site.
I originally purchased RH 8.0 and then subscribed to the Red Hat Network for a year. I've been getting the live updates as they become available, and that's all great... but now RH 9 is out. My Red Hat Network "available channels" still shows 8.0. But if I keep updating 8.0 (including the kernel), doesn't it eventually become the same thing as 9.0? Or is 9.0 entirely different? If it is in fact different, I also see that one can download the ISO images for 9.0 from RHN... however if I do that, and install 9.0 as an upgrade, will I then have access to the RH9 "channel" on RHN? Will RHN "know" that I have upgraded and will my available subscription services reflect that? Also, doesn't subscribing to RHN give you access to any other support options? I can't say that it's very easy to figure out what you get, or in some cases how to get to it, from the web site. Would appreciate any insight into the "Red Hat culture" and how it works.
