Kernel SRC RPM
I'd like to upgrade my kernel (mandrake 10.1) to 2.6.10.1. I have found an appropriate .src.rpm (kernel-2.6.10.1mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm). Unfortunately, I don't normally use .src.rpms.
What I want to know is: Is it possible to install both the kernel and the kernel source from this rpm? I.E. as if I had kernel-2.6.10.1mdk-1-1mdk.rpm and kernel-source-2.6.10.1mdk.rpm? Thanks. |
No, it will create the kernel binary. The kernel-source.src.rpm will create both. But, that isn't what you got.

Why don't you install the new kernel by compiling it? You can download it from www.kernel.org
after unzipping it, you have to move to the created directory where you have unzipped and there you should do: Code:
make oldconfig <-- It will configure your new kernel with your currently kernel configuration Good Luck ;) |
