Mageia 5 RC to main

Postby MadmanRB » Apr 26th, '15, 06:03

Just a quick question, I wont be able to install Mageis 5 RC until tomorrow but when I do I ask how easy will be to go from RC to final whenn it comes out?
Will it be patched in or something or will I have to use the disc?

I ask ass I never done this with Mageia before

It's very easy keep your system up to day mean install all updates and you change automatically to final release.

Simply switch your repos to Mageia 5 stable and install updates as usual, when mga5 is released you will have Mageia 5.

Nobody said you have to edit them one by one. Seems you didn't read the thread I've linked to, where some easy commands for this are shown.

Please mark the thread accordingly by editing the topic of the first post and prefix it by [DONE], thanks
