Hi,
I'd like to be able to pull down the new kernel and it's source. I've
added numerous update mirrors (not at the same time ;-) using
MandrakeUpdate but although I can see the kernel source, I don't have
the option of downloading the kernel itself using urpmi, e.g.
# urpmi kernel One of the following packages is needed: 1- kernel-2.4.22.10mdk-1-1mdk.i586 2- kernel-smp-2.4.22.10mdk-1-1mdk.i586 3- kernel-tmb-2.4.22.12.tmb.1mdk-1-1mdk.i586
whereas this proceeds normally:
# urpmi kernel-source ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrake/updates/9.2/RPMS/./kernel-source-2.4.22-18mdk.i586.rpm
(begins downloading)
I am doing something wrong? Or is something missing in the lists of packages on the mirrors? (Certainly, the packages are there, e.g. kernel-2.4.22.18mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm)
Thanks Damon
With the kernel and urpmi, you sometimes need to add more of the version to the command. What worked for me was:
urpmi kernel-2.4.22.18mdk
