Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem trying to upgrade
an RH7.2 kernel to 2.4.18 on a Dell PowerEdge 2650.
I made sure that kernel-source package exists,
downloaded the 2.4.18 kernel from kernel.org.
make xconfig ran without any problems. I selected
the modules/configs I want, save and exit.

Installation uses 2.4.7-10, which works fine. But I wanted to have the
box with all errata applied. This one is a production

I haven't tried this yet, but thanks for a tip with pin-point precision.

If you had all of the kernels still installed, why not just choose one
of the old kernels at boot time?

Forget I asked. It has been reported tons of times. I found plenty of
info on the subject on the different bugs, in case anyone needs help on

Is this what causes a hang on booting a new kernel when "Freeing unused
kernel memory..." appears, then init doesn't load (or execute)? I have

Hi all,
I was installing a RH 7.2 server today, and after installing I upgraded
all software packages. Finally, I upgraded the kernel packages (kernel,
kernel-smp and kernel-headers). All this with up2date. I ended up with
four different kernel packages:
- kernel-2.4.7-10
- kernel-2.4.9-34
- kern
