I have now managed to install the kernel update, third time lucky!
What's the output of:
$ rpm -qa kernel\*

$ rpm -ql kernel | grep n_hdlc
Does not output anything!
Seems the kernel has been updated but still no n_hdlc module!
This is because the i586 kernel does not include this module but the
i686 kernel does. You've installed the i586 kernel. What sort of
processor do you have?
Its an old AMD K6-2.400
