 Configure package repository
 ============================
 
-You will need to configure your system to register with and trust packages
-from the CrateDB package repository::
-
-    # Install prerequisites.
-    yum install sudo
-
-    # Import the public GPG key for verifying the package signatures.
-    sudo rpm --import https://cdn.crate.io/downloads/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-crate
-
-    # Register with the CrateDB package repository.
-    sudo rpm -Uvh https://cdn.crate.io/downloads/yum/7/x86_64/crate-release-7.0-1.x86_64.rpm
-
-The command above will install the ``/etc/yum.repos.d/crate.repo`` package
-repository configuration file.
+To register with the CrateDB package repository, create a file called ``cratedb.repo``
+in the ``/etc/yum.repos.d/`` directory for RedHat based distributions, or in the
+``/etc/zypp/repos.d/`` directory for OpenSuSE based distributions, containing::
+
+    [cratedb-ce-stable]
+    name=CrateDB RPM package repository - $basearch - Stable
+    baseurl=https://cdn.crate.io/downloads/yum/7/$basearch
+    enabled=0
+    gpgcheck=1
+    gpgkey=https://cdn.crate.io/downloads/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-crate
+    autorefresh=1

+    [cratedb-ce-testing]

 .. NOTE::
 
-    CrateDB provides both *stable release* and *testing release* channels. You
-    can read more about the `release workflow`_.
+    The configured repository is disabled by default. This eliminates the
+    possibility of accidentally upgrading CrateDB when upgrading the rest
+    of the system. Each install or upgrade command must explicitly enable
+    the repository as indicated in the sample installation command below.
 
-    By default, yum_ (Red Hat's package manager) will use the stable
-    repository. This is because the testing repository is disabled.
-    If you would like to enable the testing repository, edit the ``crate.repo``
-    file and set ``enabled=1`` within the ``[crate-testing]`` section.

+Trust signing key
+=================
+
+In order to trust the package signing key upfront, before being prompted
+to do it on the first installation of CrateDB, you can also import it
+into your repository keyring, like that::
