You will be missing some kernel modules, such as those for PPTP support, which may affect you. I suggest you wait until Beta6.

However, if you're game, please go ahead and report any breakage to the bug tracker.

Hi,

7.0b6 is out

Now, i want update my 7.0b5 to 7.0b6.
I must just make a :

Code: [Select]

]# yum update
Yes ?

And for the kernel, i must install the new kernel :

Code: [Select]

yum kernel install
Yes ? After, i can remove the old kernel.

For now, i get this error :

Code: [Select]

--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: clamav = 0.87-1sme01 for package: clamd
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: clamav = 0.87-1sme01 is needed by package clamd

Thanks by advance.

I too have had the same problem, and I have started a bug on the smeserver.sourceforge.net site. There is work being carried out on this problem, and I think it should be resolved soon.

I believe this should work. Please let me know if it doesn't and I'll update these instructions.

WARNING: You will be pulling down around 200Megabytes of updates. You are probably better off upgrading from the CD in most cases.

- Go to the Software Installer panel
- Disable all repositories except for smeos
- Install the update for smeserver-yum (and only that one)

- Enable smeos, centos and centos updates repositories
- Go to the command line and type:

yum update kernel

- Check that the new kernel is the default in /boot/grub/grub.conf

yum update                   # WARNING: About 180Megabytes

- Go to Shutdown and Reboot panel
- Select "Reconfigure"

- System should run "post-upgrade" and then reboot
