I am trying to understand this concept of "sub-repositories". Using the above example, Elrepo will be offering new repositories named "kernel-ml-3.0" and "kernel-ml-3.8" ? When a user wants to install a 3.0.x kernel, he will run: yum --enablerepo=kernel-ml-3.0 install kernel-ml And when a new major version appears, it will be added as, say, "kernel-ml-3.9" and the elrepo-release package is updated to accommodate the new repository. Is this description correct? Akemi _______________________________________________ elrepo mailing list elrepo@lists.elrepo.org http://lists.elrepo.org/mailman/listinfo/elrepo
