i did this on my setup sometime back.. cobbler is 0.4.7 on a centos 4.4
i386 box and delme is a mounted centos5 dvd iso. Also a RPM upgrade
ought to '/etc/init.d/cobbler_syslogd stop' and it no longer is supposed
to exist post upgrade.
cobbler import --mirror=delme --name=centos5_x86_64
While the rest worked as expected, i thought this ought minor warning be
brought to your attention..
