Red Hat Admin, I'm trying to upgrade my kernel. There are dependencies. They are as follows. The mkinitrd dependency is old; I'm on a later version. Can I just force this install? What rpm flags should I use? TIA! admobrie@listserv3:/listserv $ rpm -qa|grep mkinitrd mkinitrd-4.1.18-2 admobrie@listserv3:/listserv $ sudo rpm -ivh mkinitrd*4.2.1.6-1*.rpm --test Preparing... ########################################### [100%] file /sbin/grubby from install of mkinitrd-4.2.1.6-1 conflicts with file from package mkinitrd-4.1.18-2 file /sbin/mkinitrd from install of mkinitrd-4.2.1.6-1 conflicts with file from package mkinitrd-4.1.18-2 file /sbin/nash from install of mkinitrd-4.2.1.6-1 conflicts with file from package mkinitrd-4.1.18-2 listserv3:/listserv # rpm -ivh kernel*2.6.9-55*.rpm --test error: Failed dependencies: mkinitrd >= 4.2.1.6-1 is needed by kernel-hugemem-2.6.9-55.EL.i686 mkinitrd >= 4.2.1.6-1 is needed by kernel-smp-2.6.9-55.EL.i686 mkinitrd >= 4.2.1.6-1 is needed by kernel-xenU-2.6.9-55.EL.i686 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subjecthttps://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
