If you do rebuild the kernel later you need to remember to change this line again or you'll overwrite all of your existing modules etc.I've discovered that overwriting these modules makes it a little difficult to recover from kernel configuration errors.

Check the description on the rpm, but I'm pretty sure they moved them to glibc a few upgrades ago.

Re: [expert] kernel headers upgrade?
Yes, thank you, this worked wonderfully, to remove the kernel-source package, although it gave a few mesages about some of the driver dir's not being empty. Thanks!

Re: [expert] kernel headers upgrade?
As far as I can tell, the rpm upgrade command tries to uninstall kernel-headers-2.2.9-19 (before installing the -27 headers), but finds that you have kernel-source-2.2.9-19 installed, which depends on it. I'd say it should work if you also get the kernel-source-2.2.9-27 package, and give them both at the same time to rpm -Uhv; it may also be sufficient to first uninstall the kernel-souce package (rpm -e kernel-source-2.2.9-19mdk), and then try to upgrade kernel-headers. -- Alex On Sun, Oct 03, 1999 at 04:47:32PM -0700, R.
