To update all errata rpms, I personally do: - Specify kernel directly and install it in addition to the old one. "rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.9-37.s390.rpm" - Maybe change to boot this kernel: "vi /etc/zipl.conf" and "zipl" - Update all further rpms from the errata dir that are already installed: "rpm -Fvh *.rpm" The last command can fail as rpm is not yet smart enough to resolve newly added dependencies, then I use some "rpm -Uvh blah" and try again with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm" For updating only glibc, you can do "rpm -Fvh glibc*.rpm nscd*.rpm" and it should also work fine. cu, Florian La Roche
