update 2.2.2 to 2.2.4

[phe]

Hello,

I have VB 2.2.2 running on Fedora 9. (with several virtual machines configured)
I want to install the actual version now (2.2.4). (because I see something strange when I PXE-boot vm-machines)

What is the exact procedure ?

Uninstall the old one, and then installing the new one?
or
Uninstalling the new on over the old one ?

I got problems when I updated last time (couple of months ago). And I do not want to run into problems again.

thanks

Just install the new version. If you are using the F9 .rpm (which I assume) then just

Code: Select all

rpm -U VirtualBox...rpm

. If you are using the .run installer then just install the new package. Your VMs wouldn't be affected by the upgrade.

OK.

So, no need to remove first the old version.

I will do "yum local-update VirtualBox. .. .rpm" (or rpm -Uhv VirtualBox. . . .rpm)


regards,
