Delta-RPM packages contain only the differences between two normal rpm packages, so you save download time for updates.
and what's delta-iso ? and what's the difference between it and the normal iso cd images?
Delta-ISOs contain only the differences between two normal ISO images, so you save download time for updates. The mechanism usually reduces downloads by 90%. Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/

1) Please do not toppost 2) It depends on what delta's you are talking about. With the individual delta's, YOU will take care of it, for the ISOs it is applydeltaiso that you use. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.

Sorry, not me. I hope somebody else can. I have no experience in updating to factory, so whatever I could say would most likely be wrong.

No problem. English is not the first language for the majority of people. Hope somebody can help you. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
