It is possible to make it independent of the RHEL kernel. One such example is ELRepo's mainline stable kernel from kernel.org: http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml "The packages are intentionally named kernel-ml so as not to conflict with the RHEL-5 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is based upon a default RHEL-5 configuration with added functionality enabled as appropriate." [Please note that kernel-ml is not intended for production use.] Akemi _______________________________________________ rhelv6-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv6-list
