There is no such thing at the moment (at least not that I can see in RHN). As soon as you add a single update, it is no longer technically 5.0, it is e.g. 5.0.0.1. There was lots of talk about having separate update channels for each point release, such that you could have a system subscribed to the 4.2.X updates channel and it would be RHEL4.2 with critical updates only. A vendor could then choose to support e.g. RHEL4.2.X I haven't seen any sign of that system being introduced yet... perhaps it is slated for a future release. I haven't been paying any real attention as I'm very cavalier about feeding higher point releases to other applications, doubtless someone else will be more informative! But anyway, the answer for you I think is no. You can install a system at 5.0, but there is no route to get selective updates. -- Sam
