Does this mean it is possible to update a non-running system by

releasever and installroot? e.g. update F14 from F15
yum -y update --releasever=14 --installdir=<path to F14 root>
It might, but I'd think that it'd be safer to use chroot to avoid any
chance of problems. If nothing else, you'd want the F14 database
updated, not the F15, even if you're doing this from a LiveCD.
