좀더 자세한 내용은 관련링크를 방문해 보시기 바랍니다.


Notes for CentOS-5.6 can be found on-line at :
http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.6 and everyone is encouraged to look 
through them once. Also worth browsing through are the CentOS FAQs at http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ

+++++++++++++++++++++++
Upgrading from CentOS-5.5 ( or CentOS-5.0 / 5.1 / 5.2 / 5.3 / 5.5 ):

If you are already running CentOS-5.5 or an older CentOS-5 distro, all you need to do is update 
your machine via yum by running :

'yum update'

Running 'yum list updates' before doing the update is recommended, so you can get a list of packages 
that are going to be updated. To check you are indeed on CentOS-5.6, 
run : 'rpm -q centos-release' and that should return: 'centos-release-5-6.el5.centos.1'


+++++++++++++++++++++++
Live-CD:

The LiveCDs are meant to be used to run a CentOS 5.6 environment. The LiveCDs are setup in a way 
so as to allow running from either optical media like cds and dvds or from USB keys and 
other portable media. 

Release Notes for the CentOS-5.6 LiveCD can be found at :

Downloading CentOS-5.6 for new installs:

When possible, consider using torrents to run the downloads. Not only does it help the community and 
keeps mirrors from running up high bandwidth bills, in most cases you will find its also the fastest 
means to download the distro. There are currently over three hundred people seeding CentOS-5 and 
it's possible to get upto 100mbps downloads via these torrents.

-- Via BitTorrent :
       CD:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.6/isos/i386/CentOS-5.6-i386-bin-1to7.torrent
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-1to8.torrent

       DVD:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.6/isos/i386/CentOS-5.6-i386-bin-DVD.torrent
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD.torrent

       LiveCD:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.6/isos/i386/CentOS-5.6-i386-LiveCD.torrent
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-LiveCD.torrent

Note: we had to redo the x86_64 DVD and CD torrent files, so ensure you only use torrent files that 
match these published md5sum's


-- Via direct download:
Due to bandwidth considerations the CentOS Project does not publish ISOs directly from 
our network machines. However direct downloads are available from external mirrors over http, 
ftp and rsync. A geoip based list is available at http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/5/isos/
to give you the best predictable match ( and only lists mirrors that are updated already, 
so you don't need to waste time looking for a sync'd mirror )

Some mirrors also publish DVD images that can be downloaded directly.
Refer to the mirrors list page at http://www.centos.org/mirrors for more details Mirrors that offer 
DVDs are clearly marked on the page.

+++++++++++++++++++++++
Pending Updates:

Since upstream released their 5.6 media, a series of updates have been issued. 
These updates are currently syncing to the CentOS mirrors.

+++++++++++++++++++++++
Sources and Debuginfo packages:

srpms and debuginfo packages are still making their way to the CentOS mirrors and should be online 
by the 13th April 2011.

+++++++++++++++++++++++
Getting Help:

The best place to start when looking for help with CentOS is at the wiki 
( http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp ) which lists various options and communities 
who might be able to help. If you think there is a bug in the system, 
do report it at http://bugs.centos.org/ - but keep in mind that the bugs system 
is *not* a support mechanism.
