One of the problems with the old way was that multiple binary kernel packages are generated from the same source. So, which of those -- SMP or not, your architecture or not -- is the one that gets picked to be dropped in the binary-source package? Instead, just install the source RPM, and you'll have exactly what you want, with no ambiguity. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
