the above error message is during HP Qlogic driver installation, we have HP DL386 server, Redhat 5. is it known issue?

Thanks

That means that you have to install the kernel sources for your exact kernel version (it should be 2.6.18-8.el5), prior installing device drivers.

Thanks a lot Bathory, how to list what version available for download, for example I want to download kernel-devel for kernel -2.6.9-55 but I don't know what's the exact name? when I update #up2date kernel-devel it download and install
-2.6.9-78
by default, not -2.6.9-55.


Thanks
Dennis

Runningshould tell you the version of the installed kernel. The kernel source/headers rpm are in the installation media and you can install them from there. If you want a 2.6.9-xx kernel then use the latest one provided by up2date since it solve various problems.

Thanks, as below you can see my Redhat is

2.6.9-55.ELsmp

when I tried to run up2date Redhat website only show me 2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.x86_64, how can I force it to show me what kernel pacakge available for the version 2.6.9-55.ELsmp?



#up2date --show-available |grep kernel
kernel-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.x86_64
kernel-doc-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.noarch
kernel-hugemem-devel-2.6.9-5.EL.i686
kernel-ib-1.0-1.x86_64
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.x86_64
kernel-xenU-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.x86_64
kernel-xenU-devel-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.x86_64
#uname -r
2.6.9-55.ELsmp

Then you have RHEL4 and not RHEL5 as you mentioned in your 1st post.
Anyway if 2.6.9-55.ELsmp is the default kernel that comes with your distro read this to see ow you can install it.
