Hi, Thanks to those who responded! Sam, Dan, Adam, Sergio... The problem has been resolved. I removed all but the kernel-headers package and paused there to run vboxconfig. I got lucky so I stopped... Otherwise I would have done the suggested "dnf distro-sync kernel-headers" command. I experie

Dan, Thanks for responding to this plea for help... It's appreciated. I had "frozen" this system at the "release" of the 5.18 kernel... but goofed and let the 5.19 kernel get installed. So, by letting the 5.19 kernel get installed, EVERYTHING that uses the kernel headers was upgraded. Yes? In

Hi, I'm having trouble with dnf and the 5.19 kernel. I have tried to exclude the 5.19 kernel on this system (FC37) because 1) Virtual box doesn't seem to support it yet, 2) the system gets stuck during boot and the boot will NOT succeed (It seems to be running a list of UUIDs). The problem: s
