Back
I have been trying to either install a newer kernel (I've seem to fried the
newest I had : 2.4.20-28.9) or update from Red Hat 9 (shrike) to Fedora. I have
never patched the kernel manually. Most of the time I just used either yum or
apt-get update to get the newest kernel out there. However, since I am back to
using 2.4.20-24.9, whenever I try to use update on either application I get
nothing. I don't know if going back a kernel will hinder my ability to get a
new kernel. So I have tried to patch the kernel with the patch-2.4.24.bz2 patch
I found. I use the following instructions that I found on the web:
#cd /usr/src/
#bunzip2 patch-2.4.24.bz2 | patch -p0 -E
#find . -name '*.rej' -print
I restart the computer and nothing happen. Since there was nothing else, I don
't if I am missing something.
Also, I have tried to upgrade to Fedora using yum or apt-get. However, that has
not worked so far.
Any suggestion or comments are appreciated.
Take Care,
J
