Just do yum upgrade as root, although I wonder if /etc/yum.conf should
include references to mirrors rather than just the main site.

I just saw the announcement on WhiteBox, so I'm downloading it via
bittorrent as we speak.  I've read the &quot;howto&quot;, but I didn't see
anything in there regarding patches.  I presume that WB users are
expected to download patches via SRPM, could someone clarify that for
me?

Thanks,</I></FONT></PRE>
