The method of upgrading the kernel on RH 5.1 described on www.redhat.com (errata) is not working properly. I installed RH 5.1 from scratch. Moved the new kernel rpm's to /tmp and issued: rpm -Uvh *.rpm. This results in error message: cannot remove /lib/modules/2.0.34-0.6 - directory not empty cannot remore /lib/modules/2.0.34-0.6/misc - directory not empty Rebooting the PC results in error messages that some modules cannot be located: "Can't locate module net-pf-4" etc. In /lib/modules the directories 2.0.34-1 and 2.0.34-0.6 are present plus a link from preferred to 2.0.34-0.6. Issueing a "rm preferred" and a "ln -s 2.0.34-1 preferred", followed by a "depmod -a" gives message: Can't open /lib/modules/2.0.34/modules.dep. Using "ln -s 2.0.34-1 2.0.34" gives a lot of unresolved objects. I rather would not like to compile the kernel again, but just issue some rpm commands to update the kernel. How can I accomplish this?
