Does your yum.conf file have a line like this in it? exclude=kernel* If so, take it out and it will upgrade the kernel Seth Shoemaker -----Original Message----- From: fedora-legacy-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-legacy-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of v b Sent: Friday, March 05, 2004 13:19 PM To: fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: yum not updating kernel on rh7.3? I'm a little confused. I followed the instructions to make use of yum on my rh7.3 server as published at: http://fedoralegacy.org/docs/yum-rh7x.php and it has updated some packages correctly (ie; elm, ethereal), but does not grab the recent kernel update. I've tried various mirrors, but that doesn't seem to help. I'm currently running kernel-2.4.20-28.7. I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing. vb _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar – get it now! http://clk.atdmt.com/AVE/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/ -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
