I'm not sure what your up2date problem is, but you can always download the updated kernel from any of the numerous Red Hat mirrors, and update manually. ncftpget ftp://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/redhat/updates/9/en/os/i386/kernel-2.4.20-19.9.i386.rpm rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.20-19.9.i386.rpm Once you've rebooted and confirmed everything works as expected... rpm -q kernel (should respond with multiple kernel package versions) rpm -e kernel-2.4.20-18.9 (or whatever the older version is) -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
