==== Enable networking ====
This is a temporary measure, and should work if you have the a DHCP server giving your external adapter (usually eth1) an IP address.
* Login as root and issue:
<syntaxhighlight lang="Bash">
<syntaxhighlight lang="Bash">
ifup eth0
ifup eth0
ifup eth1
ifup eth1
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
==== Configure SME9 repositories ====
Download a repo file that will enable the SME9 repo's as a temporary measure until the SME9 yum.conf settings are enabled. After the post-upgrade/reboot the proper yum configuration is enabled.

==== Yum upgrade ====
The latest the e-smith and smeserver packages needed are installed by the CD now, and bug [[bugzilla:7350]] is fixed with e-smith-base-5.4.0-10 so now the command is just:
<syntaxhighlight lang="Bash">
yum --disablerepo=base,updates,extras upgrade --nogpg
yum --disablerepo=base,updates,extras upgrade --nogpg
</pre>
</syntaxhighlight>
==== post-upgrade / reboot ====
Installation is done and we need to do:
<syntaxhighlight lang="Bash">
<syntaxhighlight lang="Bash">
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
When system boots up it will ask you if you want to restore from backup (say no) and enter a root password, etc, and will reboot.
==== Configure the server ====
* Log in as root and run 'console' and select 'configure this server', choose the desired configuration and then it ask you to reboot again. It has been seen that the server freezes on entering the first letter of the admin password, more info needed on this.
* You should be able to access https://yourserverip/server-manager/ now in a browser but due to [[bugzilla:7254]] you need to access it twice.
* Save a snapshot in virtualbox so you can revert to this point if needed.

- If you have followed these steps and you are up to date with 'yum upgrade', go ahead and look for problems, and report them to the bug tracker. Currently there are many issues, but lots have been reported and fixed already, so report issues you find right away.

- the repo smeupdates-testing is not enabled by default. At this point in the development process you will probably want those rpms. This will check what is available:
