Hi all,
I have a bad feeling asking this. Don't laugh at me please ... but, what
is iXXX behind the word 'kernel', I mean for example FC3 kernel i686?
If I get the output ...
[root@ferrari i386]# uname -r
2.6.9-1.667
.. does it mean I have i686 because of the 6 after the 2? Or is there a
different way to find it out?
2.6.9 is the kernel version.
1.667 is the RPM release number.
The same kernel/RPM release can be built for different architectures.
To see exactly what you have installed, try this:
$ rpm -q --queryformat '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} (%{ARCH})\n' \
kernel kernel-smp
Also see "man uname"
