All righty, here's my little problem. I recently did a fresh install of RedHat 4.2 which uses kernel-2.0.30. Then I thought, "since there's a newer update at redhat's ftp site, kernel-2.0.30-3, let's load that baby before I start building my custom kernels." Well, following the rpm installs, I now have 2 kernel-modules rpm's, neither of wich can be removed, and the running kernel is still the old one, even though the rpm query reports kernel-2.0.30-3. How should I procede now?? Is there a rpm command to straighten out this issue? I've already built a static kernel (no modules) which I boot with when installing a new custom kernel, but even then, rpm reports it cannot remove the current running kernel. Reloading 4.2 is an option, but I sure would like to find a different solution, just to know there is one. Reloading is an NT characteristic I'd like to avoid! - Christoph
