Hi! Using yum on RH ES/AS 3.0 with great success, it really rocks! The only problem, running yum during kickstart, installs a bunch of kernels and I'd prefer if yum would use "rpm -F kernel-package" instead of "rpm -i ...". 'man yum.conf' shows this option, I'd like to disable: installonlypkgs list of packages that should only ever be installed, never updated - kernels in particular fall into this category. Defaults to kernel, kernel-smp, kernel-bigmem, kernel-enter-prise, kernel-debug, kernel-unsupported. Removing the older kernel packages from the install server isn't a good option. Thx for reading and keep the great work! Michael Heiming
