[Yum] How to Change yum's Idea of the Kernel Version

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am new to yum and am using it to incrementally upgrade my RH 7.2 server.

The first step I tried was upgrading all my 7.2 packages to the latest
version.  It is getting hung up on upgrading iptables since it thinks it
needs a new kernel >= 2.4.20.  My problem is that I build a custom kernel and
do not use RPMs for kernel updates.  I am currently at 2.4.30 but iptables
won't update.

How can I get yum to know that I am actually up-to-date on my kernel so that
it lets the update go through?

Also how do I trigger the next update to RH 7.3 (and beyond), once 7.2 is
up-to-date?

TIA!
