Hi Tamas, You are not the only one who has tripped-up over the RHEL8 kernel-core, -modules and -modules-extra packages. So please don't worry about it . . . we got there in the end. I can now go and prepare the latest announcements for the updated kernel-ml package sets, as linux-5.8.7 was released a short while ago. Alan. _______________________________________________ elrepo mailing list elrepo@lists.elrepo.org http://lists.elrepo.org/mailman/listinfo/elrepo
