True, it worked with Mandrake's 2.6.3 kernel. So basically if anyone want's to upgrade from Mandrake 9.2 to 10.0 with root filesystem on lvm1 this is what I did. Point urpmi main to a Mandrake 10.0 repository do 'urpmi --auto-select' which upgrades to Mandrake 10.0 packages do 'urpmi lvm2' do 'urpmi kernel-2.6.3-7mdk' to install a new kernel reboot and select the new kernel during bootup to test the new kernel.
