The root cause is, vmlinuz and System.map already exist in the destination before running installkernel. Fedora ships vmlinux, config, System.map in the module directory. Why don't you mimic it? Change the %install section to install them to /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}/. Then, change %post section to copy them to /boot/. If you take care of an unusual case where installkernel is not found, you can support manual copy as a fallback. %post if [ -x /sbin/installkernel ]; then /sbin/installkernel %{KERNELRELEASE} \ /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}/vmlinuz \ /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}/System.map else cp /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}/vmlinuz /boot/vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEAE} cp /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}/System.map /boot/System.map-%{KERNELRELEAE} cp /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}/config /boot/config-%{KERNELRELEAE} fi The ugly shuffling will go away, and this should work for both fedora 38 and 39. Maybe, you can also convert the installkernel syntax to kernel-install while you are here. > scripts/package/kernel.spec | 4 ++++ > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/scripts/package/kernel.spec b/scripts/package/kernel.spec > index 3eee0143e0c5..d4276ddb6645 100644 > --- a/scripts/package/kernel.spec > +++ b/scripts/package/kernel.spec > @@ -77,12 +77,16 @@ rm -rf %{buildroot} > > %post > if [ -x /sbin/installkernel -a -r /boot/vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE} -a -r /boot/System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE} ]; then > +if [ $(rpm -qf /sbin/installkernel --queryformat "%{n}") = systemd-udev ];then > +/sbin/installkernel %{KERNELRELEASE} /boot/vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE} /boot/System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE} > +else > cp /boot/vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE} /boot/.vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE}-rpm > cp /boot/System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE} /boot/.System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE}-rpm > rm -f /boot/vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE} /boot/System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE} > /sbin/installkernel %{KERNELRELEASE} /boot/.vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE}-rpm /boot/.System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE}-rpm > rm -f /boot/.vmlinuz-%{KERNELRELEASE}-rpm /boot/.System.map-%{KERNELRELEASE}-rpm > fi > +fi > > %preun > if [ -x /sbin/new-kernel-pkg ]; then > -- > 2.43.0 > -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada
