Sorry, you can't have your cake and eat it too. If you want to try the packages safely you must rebuild them for 7.2 but realise that you don't really have an 8.0 release unless you go through the whole update process. What's more is that if you rebuild some packages for 7.2 and then do the 8.0 update process it wont update to the 8.0 version of the packages because rpm sees that you have the latest version installed anyway - then things dont work properly. You must decide - are you running 7.2 or 8? __ Get your free Australian email account at http://www.start.com.au

Is there any documentation on live_update??? I can't find any.

Re: [Cooker] How do I upgrade to cooker?
Try this: 1. Upgrade sash 2. Reboot, and put this in lilo/grub prompt: init=/sbin/sash 3. rpm -Fvh * Just hope that you don't encounter packages from 7.2 which contains some symbolic links, and these symbolic links are changed to directories in cooker packages. I have never seen rpm upgrading such kind of RPMs successfully.

[Cooker] How do I upgrade to cooker?
I'd like to upgrade to cooker (I'm currently using 7.2 + updates), but I suspect 'rpm -Fvh *' won't do it, since it didn't work for upgrading from 7.1 to 7.2 . How can I upgrade to cooker without going thru the installation program (which is a real pain)? Thanks. -- []'s|.~.
