You don't need to, but they're useful to have, especially if you're having trouble. You can install through YUM. This ought to do it: yum install kernel-doc ---- snippet from that document about rebooting ---- reboot=b[ios] | t[riple] | k[bd] [, [w]arm | [c]old] bios Use the CPU reboto vector for warm reset warm Don't set the cold reboot flag cold Set the cold reboot flag triple Force a triple fault (init) kbd Use the keyboard controller. cold reset (default) Using warm reset will be much faster especially on big memory systems because the BIOS will not go through the memory check. Disadvantage is that not all hardware will be completely reinitialized on reboot so there may be boot problems on some systems. reboot=force Don't stop other CPUs on reboot. This can make reboot more reliable in some cases. ---- end snippet from that document ---- -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
