See my earlier posts for details; this still persists.

I've not noticed that anyone's asking for information.

It's a bit blurry, I think the camera doesn't handle the contrast well, but it is legible.

I've had this on some kernels and not on others, but what is more interesting is it can go away depending on what kernel you installed them from. There was talk of a mkinitrd error when installing from 2.6.24 kernels, but I get that problem for some kernels when I install from 2.6.23-1 and not for others, and sometimes they install fine from the latest.

My advice.. keep lots of prior kernels, I've currently got installonlyn=10, and I've locked the oldest kernel to not get removed as
I was wondering about this:
installonly_limit=8
installonlypkgs=kernel*

I then did a
yum install kernel

and there was only one left.

Sorry I for the delay.  What I have setup is this:

/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.conf
[main]
enabled = 1
locklist = /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list

/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list
0:kernel-2.6.24.1-28.fc9.i686
0:kernel-2.6.25-0.40.rc1.git2.fc9.i686
0:kernel-2.6.25-0.82.rc3.git2.fc9.i686

You need to have fixed yum-versionlock which is broken, see bz:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433581

By default the kernel is included in installonlypkgs, so you don't really need to set that (and there may be others included in default you're not now including).

The newer kernels are installing fine for me from 2.6.24.1-28 (which is why I still have it).


I have updated the bug report:
1 Change component to kernel
2 Reassign
3 Attach new boot log

I have built a kernel sans modules from the source in kernel-2.6.25-0.121.rc5.git4.fc9.src.rpm
