No, but isn't there going to be a problems with the fact that the RPMS are spread over two CDs?

I have no idea if the RPMS you will need to freshen are all on the first CD. The instructions for FTP install tell you to copy all the stuff from multiple CDs onto one filesystem if you are going to try and FTP or NFS install.

You might be able to freshen out of that collection.
