I did:
yumdownloader kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686
sudo rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --replacepkgs \
kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686.rpm
yumdownloader comes from the yum-utils package.
Thanks, Lars. I followed your suggestion and now I have my kernel replaced.
I, however, didn't. I saw this too late...I yum removed kernel then yum
installed kernel.i686 and got a grubby error. Now my kernel doesn't appear
at all in grub.conf
Can someone tell me the proper way to get it back? Or if there's no proper
way that doesn't involve reinstalling using anaconda, just paste me their
one so I can modify it?
