Of course, if you use a more recent .iso, you'll have less packages to update. -- Ugo -> Please don't send a copy of your reply by e-mail.

You can continue to use the "old" one if you would like. After install just "yum update" to get all the updates(which will subsequently upgrade you to the latest version). If you want to minimize updates you can get the newest DVD iso from the mirrors. Here is one of them: http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/4.1/isos/ Robert Hanson wrote:> greetings > > when CentOS 4 first came out i downloaded the DVD and installed from it > several times just fine. > > should i continue to use it? > > OR, is there a "newer" one? > > where on the mirros should i snag it "the best" new one if it exists please? > > thank you and kind regards, > > - rh > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > . >-- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.
