Mandrake should change their kernel installation instructions in the
latest Security Advisory since they say there:

"To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.  If you want to upgrade
manually, download the updated package(s) from one of our FTP server
mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm"."

Not quite... if you do Fvh... things could get real spooky. You never upgrade or freshen a kernel.. It always has to be installed (ivh ) otherwise all of the proper scripts to bind it to your computer will not get run and the end result will be...... a bit bucket.


One set of instructions said to use urpmi kernel. I did and it worked.
