Upgrade using kickstart

[Sam Folk-Williams]

Hi,

If you are simply upgrading within the same release (RHEL 3) from one
U to another, just use up2date -u -- you don't need to do a new
install. The upgrade option at install time is intended for one
release to the next (RHEL 3 to RHEL 4, for example). up2date -u should
bring you up to the latest release.
