Hi, I don't believe there is a kernel directory in the /pub/speakup/disks/redhat/7.2/kernel directory. There is either a kernel or kernels directory in the 7.3 directory. Also, I think there may have been kernels in the 7.2 directory, but what if I have 2.4.7-10, do I just need the kernel rpm, or do I need to upgrade other kernel rpms as well? Also, one more question, what kernel do I need as far as the 386, etc. I have a pIII 1.2GHZ.
