[CALUG] Upgrading from RH 7.3

[Dave Bazell]

Hi,

I have dual boot Windows XP/RHLinux system running RH 7.3 (Valhalla) with
kernel version 2.4.18-3.  I want to upgrade to whatever is the current RH
version since I am more frequently downloading sw that won't compile becuase
I have an old version of something, usually libc.

Any suggestions about the best way to do this?  Just install current version
that I download from RH (hours worth of downloading over my cable modem)?
Other approaches?

Thanks,

Dave
