It can get very funny when you go for an updated version of many distros. Especially when you like to install packages of your interest, kernels, betas and latest desktops. The update/ fresh-install option provided is quite inadequate ... for e.g with FC. In the situation most people would not like to remove the parallel version and more so if it a production system. ...and certainly not dare an update (image backups would need too much time).
I want to know whether the following mode of "updating" is possible. Let version x be a distro installed in /dev/hdai and we want an updated version of x by x+ in /dev/hdaj with the original installation intact. For security reasons this is best done if the initiation part is controlled by version x. Any ideas ?
Best,
