Hi all, I am just looking into yum and was wondering if yum knows to treat kernel upgrades differently from other upgrades. IOW Does it rm the old kernel or just install the new one along side the old. Since I could not find anything in the docs wrt this I suspect it will rm the old kernel but I am not sure. Also I downloaded the srpm last night and when I try to unpack it rpm segfaults. I tried it on 2 different 8.0 machines and an rpm -K says the rpm is ok. Any ideas on this?? I finally got the tarball built and installed yum and all seems ok so far. I have not yet tried to actually update anything yet though. -- .............Tom "Nothing would please me more than being able to tdiehl@xxxxxxxxxxxx hire ten programmers and deluge the hobby market with good software." -- Bill Gates 1976 We are still waiting ....
