RH 7 is packaged with the Linux Pocketbook, 3rd ed. As a
non-computer-professional I find the Pocketbook useful (although the
lack of a good index in the 3rd edition is infuriating).
I upgraded from RH 6.2 without pain. The only problem I know of is if
you use any special sendmail configuration.

Thanks Terry,
I'll give up on that one.
Because you didn't buy a boxed set, you don't have a product number to
enter.
You can upgrade RH6.2 to RH7.0 in a number of ways.
My preferred way (to do any upgrade) is to obtain a CD rom and run it
from the CDrom.

This is good news, but they seem to have lost track with their numbering.
I have "The Linux Pocketbook" which came with RH5.2, "The revised edition
Linux Pocketbook" which came with RH6.0 and OL2.2N, and "The revised
edition Linux Pocketbook" which came with RH6.1 and OL2.3, and is

You also find that rpm will take an __age__ to generate the

Does anyone out there have the correct Product ID for RH6.2 ?
I think you will find this only applies to boxed sets and the product ID
is really a serial number in normal
