First of all: I want to update my server to PHP and MySQL 5.

I found several threads here, with the same questions! But nobody, really nobody, couldn't explain me "how" to run those "rpms" from atomicrocketturtle.com.

Whatever: how to install the rpm packages?

Serverdata: CPU: Xeon(R)CPU @ 3.23GHz
PSA: 8.2.0
OS: CentOS 4.2

Why I'm asking this?
In fact, i am a "newbie" with servers, but learning console and all those security things is quite amazing :)

I hope that I could use the replies here, to create a good FAQ and tutorial for my blog in future (to help others!) :)

have a look here:

This is only if you are running a RH variant...

Install Art's repo:
Automatic configuration
Using Lynx (yum -y install lynx):
lynx -source http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic.sh | sh

Using Wget:
wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic.sh | sh



now use YUM to upgrade php or mysql......

yum update mysql-server or yum update php
