A few notes from my rather modest experiences with Rocky . . .

The two main repos for Rocky 8.4 are:  
[http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8.4/BaseOS/](http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8.4/BaseOS/)  
[http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8.4/Appstream](http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8.4/Appstream)

Rocky uses DNF  
Rocky uses the Anaconda installer

I converted a Centos 8 system to Rocky very easily - see this thread [Transition from CentOS to Rocky - #37 by Iainwhite](https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/transition-from-centos-to-rocky/389/37)
