RedHat 7.3 downgradable to 7.2???

timesb · 07-19-2002, 04:28 PM

Some co-workers can't get their stuff working on RedHat 7.3 yet so I have to downgrade my development box from 7.3 back to 7.2.
Has anyone done this successfully? Any docs on this?

Thanks,
Any help helps.

There are no docs, basicly back up files.

backing up my files is s.o.p. I was wondering about the RH packages/kernel/config files being intermeshed going from 7.3->7.2

If you're g onna do a manual update, that'd take a loong time removing stuff like kernel 2.4.18 and putting back kernel 2.4.9 etc

Your probably better off just reinstalling 7.2. Or if you can find out what is causing the issues your having with the "stuff", you could try to downgrade any packages and or dependencies that is causing the problems.
