Hello, i'd like to upgrade my linux rh 6.2 sparc installation, but i don't
find the up2date command...
Any suggestions to update this OS in the easy way ;-) ??? I mean kernel,
servers, and all required packages...

Thanks,

Riccardo

Up2date doesn't exist in pre-7 versions of redhat, this including 6.2 for
sparc. I believe there's a version of rawhide, the development version of
their latest dist for sparc, but i'm not sure how complete or useful it
is.

Hi
I have installed up2date-2.7.61-6.x.1.sparc.rpm d/l from the sparc update
directory on one of the mirrors in Australia....works fine for me.

Cheers
Malcolm
