It's unfortunate, but there isn't much that can be done. It's rare that things change in the kernel that prevent it from being installed on older releases, but it does happen. You can install it on F19, which as of today is a GA release. If Harald includes kernel-install in the F18 version of systemd, we can adjust the requirements there too. josh _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
