RE: [rhn-users] Problems upgrading to 8.0

Sorry, I've seen what I thought were similar installation questions
here. I was directed to this list by a support page on redhat.com ( I
purchased 8.0 from RedHat).

Eek... upgrades are sometimes... interesting. This is the wrong mailing

Try redhat-install-list or redhat-list or psyche-list (8.0).
