Hiya - I'm trying to upgrade the kernel on a remote server I'm 
administering and have come across a problem - basically my /boot 
partition is not big enough to allow the upgrade - and I'm not too 
sure how I can get around this one - is there a way that I'll be able 
to grow this partition... is there a way that I'll be able to do that 
remotely - I really would rather not having to go out to get the 
machine for upgrading :(

cheers, dan.

[root@server updates]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.2.16-3.i586.rpm
installing package kernel-2.2.16-3 needs 3Mb on the /boot filesystem
