Apologies is this appears twice, I sent it, but never saw it appear.... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hi folks, I am having a few problems on my Redhat 7.2 machine running on an old AMD K6/400. For various reasons I believe I have a few problems that might be fixed by upgrading to the latest kernel, however, it is a production machine and I am a little nervous (and also have little time to spend on admin) The thought occurs that I might be able to use the updated Kernel from the Redhat 7.3 download dir to update my 7.2 distribution. The RPM states that the only unsatisfied dependency is the "dev" package. Presumably updating the kernel itself is reversable if I have problems (and install with rpm -ivh). However, anyone have any recommendations as to whether it is safe to upgrade to the 7.3 dev RPM on a 7.2 system? Are there any other "recommended" updates if grab this new kernel which I should consider getting at the same time, eg initrd?
