Problem with update centos 6.8 to 7

Post by spinoza » 2016/12/16 20:03:03

Hi!

I have problem with update centos 6.8 to 7

I use how-to - https://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/CentOSUpgradeTool

Code: Select all

# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.8 (Final)

When I make last command

Code: Select all

#centos-upgrade-tool-cli --network 7 --instrepo=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/ --cleanup-post
I have error:

Code: Select all

# centos-upgrade-tool-cli --network 7 --instrepo=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/ --cleanup-post

There is no upgrade tool - it's been broken for about 18 months and there is no-one who cares enough to fix it. It's documented as broken in the wiki page that describes how to use it. It will KILL your system, DO NOT use it.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Ok. Thanks.

You can then tell, how I can upgrade from 6.8 to 7?

Make sure your hardware is still supported, backup, reinstall, restore.
