Hi,

Here's a list of upgrade options from SL 6.0 to SL 6.1.

Option 1: similar to RHEL / CentOS for i386 and x86_64:

yum install yum-conf-sl6x
yum clean all
yum update

Option 2: Scientific Linux way

i386:
rpm -Uvh 
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6.1/i386/os/Packages/sl-release-6.1-2.i686.rpm
yum clean all
yum update

x86_64:

rpm -Uvh 
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6.1/x86_64/os/Packages/sl-release-6.1-2.x86_64.rpm
yum clean all
yum update

That's it.

Additional for sl-fastbugs, sl-testing, and sl-debuginfo (optional):
yum install yum-conf-sl-other

Best regards,

Morten
