Updating RHEL 4's kernel

elbadry · 04-09-2008, 04:52 PM

Hi all,

I need to update the Kernel of my Redhat enterprise 4 WS. I need to do that manually as I do not have a Redhat account.

How can I do that?

I am a newbie so I'd need a step by step instruction. I also don't know where to get the updates

The output of uname -a is:

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-34.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Feb 24 16:54:53 EST 2006 i 686 i686 i386 GNU/Linu

I need to update to 2.6.9-67 or -55

Thanks in Advance!

Centos is RHEL with the logos removed and is free to download. You can do a search on "RHEL4 and Centos yum". There are instruction out on the net. This way you can use Centos's repos and yum to update.
