Thread: where would I find the files I need?
Hi everybody,
I am running postgres 8.3.0 on linux (hardware is dell).
When I issue: cat /etc/redhat-release
It comes back with: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4)
and when I issue: uname -r
It says: 2.6.9-42.ELsmp
Given that, would somebody please tell me where I can go
to grab the correct set of files to upgrade to the latest
postgres, v8.3.3?
I have been to the postgres website and via File Browser, I got to:
Top → binary → v8.3.3 → linux → rpms → redhat → rhel-4-x86_64
Am I at the right place?
Please advise.
Many thanks.
Regards,
Tena Sakai

Excuse my ignorance, as I don't run any 64bit kernels, but is that a 64 bit kernel he's listed? 2.6.9-42.ELsmp -- Until later, Geoffrey Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. - Benjamin Franklin
