I just dl'd kernel-2.4.8-43.1mdk and installed it on two machines. The first was fine. The second did this:
# rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.8-34.1mdk.i586.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:kernel ########################################### [100%] depmod: cannot read ELF header from /lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/kernel/fs/nls/nls_iso8859-9.o.gz;3c49434b As the install seemed to have completed I booted the new kernel just to see what would happen, and sure enough it hangs after the initial lilo "booting..." message. A quick check of the file mentioned in the message shows that it exists, but with 0 bytes and it is the only file in this directory. By contrast, the machine on which the install succeeded has many files in that dir. No problem - I put things back the way they were and everything is fine, but I guess I should be running this updated kernel as it was a security update. Can anyone shed any light? Brian
