To upgrade from Rocky 8 to Rocky 9 use:
- Ensure sufficient free space in / before proceeding
- Full update current system
- dnf update -y --skip-broken --nobest --allowerasing
- Consider doing below till it succeeds:
- sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
- If you neeed to remove some package for above to work then after every single removal try above command again till it completes successfully.
- A few articles suggested doing:
cd /etc/yum.repos.d rm -f CentOS* _copr* weewx.repo zmrepo* mv -f Rocky-PowerTools.repo.rpmnew Rocky-PowerTools.repo
- Go to URL https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/r/
- Note package names for rocky-release, rocky-repos and rocky-gpg-keys. Eg at time of this writing values were:
REPO_URL="https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/r" RELEASE_PKG="rocky-release-9.2-1.5.el9.noarch.rpm" REPOS_PKG="rocky-repos-9.2-1.5.el9.noarch.rpm" GPG_KEYS_PKG="rocky-gpg-keys-9.2-1.5.el9.noarch.rpm"
- Remove packages that may cause conflict:
- dnf -y remove rpmconf yum-utils epel-release
- Install the rocky9 packages using:
- sudo dnf install $REPO_URL/$RELEASE_PKG $REPO_URL/$REPOS_PKG $REPO_URL/$GPG_KEYS_PKG
- Move redhat-logos as it causes update to fail
- mv /usr/share/redhat-logos /usr/share/redhat-logos-old
- Upgrade system from Rocky 8 to Rocky 9 via:
- sudo dnf --releasever=9 --allowerasing --setopt=deltarpm=false distro-sync -y
- If above throws errors then please try
dnf remove openssl3-libs dnf remove python39-six dnf remove epel-release dnf remove libvpx6 iptables-ebtables
- As a last resort you can consider running:
- sudo dnf --releasever=9 --allowerasing --setopt=deltarpm=false distro-sync -y --skip-broken --nobest
- Rebuild the RPM DB using below after OS version is upgraded to 9 from 8:
- sudo rpm --rebuilddb
- Optionally you can allow SHA1 based signatures via:
- update-crypto-policies --set DEFAULT:SHA1
- https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/rhel-security-sha-1-package-signatures-distrusted-rhel-9
- Optionally If using dnf generates warnings such as:
- Problem 1: conflicting requests
- - nothing provides module(platform:el8) needed by module container-tools:rhel8:8080020230516204140:8108cfbc.x86_64
- ...
- for many modules then list and remove modules which depend on platform:el8. For example
- dnf module list
- dnf module disable container-tools gimp httpd llvm-toolset mariadb nginx nodejs perl perl-DBD-MySQL perl-DBI perl-libwww-perl php postgresql python27 python36 python38 python39 satellite-5-client virt perl-DBD-SQLite perl-IO-Socket-SSL
- Verify latest 5.14 kernel got installed properly using:
- dnf -y install kernel kernel-core shim epel-release
- Full update system once again using:
- dnf update -y --nobest --allowerasing --skip-broken
- dnf install neofetch -y
- Reboot system and validate Rocky 9 with 5.14 kernel
- Only if boot via 5.14 kernel is successful check and remove older kernel using:
- dnf remove $(rpm -qa|grep -i kernel|grep 4.18)
- Also install any critical packages removed earlier via dnf
