I would do something like the following (disclaimer: I've tried things like this on Red Hat Linux, but not on the Enterprise beta): 1. rpm -e --nodeps redhat-release 2. rpm -ivh [whatever redhat-release RPM comes with the WS beta] 3. Log into RHN and delete your old system profile for this computer. 4. up2date --register (add --force if needed) and re-register the computer. If you're willing to change the profile name, you can actually do this before step 3 rather than after. 5. Now use up2date, remove the server packages, etc. Hope this helps, -Barry K.
