What's you mean about upgrade? Do you want to upgrade the OS from RH7.3 to FC2?
If so, first make four CDs with your 4 ISo files. Then reinstall the OS. Remember choose the option of UPGRADE. Certainly, don't forget to bakup your important files.
if your care the user interface, then upgrade it. but, if you want to use this Redhat 9.0 system to run the EDA software, don't upgrade. there are a lot of software compatibility problems.
i have installed the centos 3 on opteron amd64 .
So far only the Astro can not run .

Hi
what did you think about a newly brand machine taht you want to install yoiur desired cad tools?
Have you ever suffered from some-pieces-of-shit with VGA support in redhat 7.2/7.3?
A lot EDA softwares could not be installed from the CD release if the Redhat 9.0 is used. However, if you install the EDA in 7.3, tar-gzip it and install it in the Red 9.0, it still works. I don't know the real reason. It is just a trick to work around for the update.
