Status: Pre-Alpha
SME Server Version 8 will be the next major version of SME Server, and will involve upgrading the base to CentOS5. We are just in the very early stages of development, but so far things look very good - not nearly as many changes as were required from going from a base of RedHat 7.3 in SME Server 6.x to a base of CentOS4 in SME Server 7.x.
Upgrade paths:
So far 7.1, 7.1.3 and 7.2 are able to yum upgrade to SME 8 Pre-Alpha. You should only do this if you are interested in helping with development and testing.
Want to join in the fun:
Grab yourself a test box and follow the instructions below:
Setup with the following yum repositories...
/sbin/e-smith/db yum_repositories set sme8os repository \ Name 'SME Server 8 - smeos' \ BaseURL 'http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/testing/8/smeos/i386/' \ EnableGroups yes \ GPGCheck no \ Visible yes \ status enabled
Expand your yum.conf...
expand-template /etc/yum.conf
Then run yum command
yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=sme8os --enablerepo=sme8test upgrade
Once completed issue
signal-event post-upgrade;signal-event reboot
If you have any bug issues with upgrading please open a new SME Server 8.x file a bug here
