In place upgrade issue
by Sleepinfire from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5BQW9)
I'm having some trouble with an in place upgrade.
I'm following these instructions:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/637583
Which is the same here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aGi...58I4tUsVs/view
I'm at the part where this command is run:
redhat-upgrade-tool --force --cleanup-post --iso /home/lnuser/rhel-server-7.9-x86_64-dvd.iso
After the command completes it says "Reboot to start upgrade."
Upon rebooting no upgrade occurs, it boots back into the 6.10 login screen.
Here is my grub.conf after running the command. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
