Hi folks,
The 4.0 upgrade went quite smoothly for me. Of course, I had to do a
few things:
1. Restore /etc/hosts from my backups after the Colgate upgrade blew it
away.
2. Blow away sendmail and re-install smail (and restore my smail
config).
3. Run mouseconfig to get rid of the boot-time error from GPM.
4. Restore my /etc/lilo.conf (I have a mem=96M option, otherwise Linux
only sees 64MB of my memory) and add the initrd=/boot/initrd line.
5. Move my emacs site-lisp directory to /usr/share/emacs.
So far so good!!
This was the easiest upgrade I've done. After rebooting, my system
brought itself back on the net and everything just worked!
Keep up the good work, Redhat!!
