One technique: If you're sensible to enough to keep more than one or two kernels installed, then reboot and pick an older kernel to boot from. Then, use rpm or yum to remove one of the newer kernels. Then use rpm or yum to install a kernel. Hints: [tim@suspishus ~]$ rpm -q kernel kernel-2.6.29.6-217.2.7.fc11.i586 kernel-2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.i586 kernel-2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i586 kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 Looking at the numbers, the last one is the highest version of a kernel installed on my system. rpm -e kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 or yum remove kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 Read CAREFULLY any warnings about removing other things at the same time, and think carefully about doing so. Then, rpm -ivh /path/to/your/kernel/install/package/kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 or yum install kernel (and that should get the latest kernel available from a repo). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
