Hi Urs, Thanks for the hints.

There are several packages - a couple of xorg-x11 drivers, fuse and a few others - that require "kernel". >Furthermore, does the rpm kernel-ml-NONPAE provides "kernel"? > >rpm -q -provides kernel-ml-NONPAE > >If this is the case, kernel should not be installed as dependency...? Yes, kernel-ml-NONPAE does provide kernel = 3.5.3-1.el6.elrepo The "requires" are all for kernel >= 2.xxxx So is it just an ordering problem? If kernel-ml-NONPAE had been installe d before the other packages, would they still have pulled in the other kern el? >2. Edit boot menu > >The boot menu is customized in sl6rolling-live-base.ks. Look for the scr ipt /root/postnochroot-install. In fact $LIVE_ROOT/isolinux/isolinux.cfg is c reated. >Have a look at /isolinux/isolinux.cfg on your LiveDVD. It should be possible to remove all boot entries for "kernel" in /isolinux/isolinux.cf g with the help of >some "magic" sed-commands in /root/postnochroot-install. I'll have to study that. >BTW. if we (you) get the this working, I will try to add it to the SL Li ve kickstart files as an option.... Good, I think there are others who would use it as well.
