Hi,
thanks for your answer.
Does this mean that there is no repository with old kernel versions?
you advice to compile kernel sources from kernel.org. Does this mean
that fedora kernel is not patched? In other words, are kernel*.fc6.rpm,
simple compiled packages from the official kernel sources (on kernel.org)?
Thanks

Hi all,
As I don't wish to upgrade to kernel 2.6.20 (due to SATA problems
with my chip), I still use kernel 2.6.19-1.2911. But I need to
compile a kernel module so I need theese packages
kernel-devel-2.6.19-1.2911.fc6 et kernel-headers-2.6.19-1.2911.fc6
The problem is that they are no longer available on fedora
repositories. Indeed, there are only packages relative to last kernel
2.6.20
Where can I get theese packages?
Many thanks,
Etienne
Hi Etienne
If you have a problems with sata hd and mainboard chipset, make a test
with the last kernel from official kernel repository (2.6.21.5).
With this kernel, the modules for sata disk fixed a various bug,
included the hd discovery (in the x86_64 platform correct a bug for
system with more 4 gigabyte of ram).
If you have the same problems look here :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242969
In every cases, if you dont found the original rpm package for your
kernel, you have 2 solution :
or make a downgrade with the 2.6.18 original packages,
or download the latest 2.6.19 (
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.19.7.tar.gz),
and recompile for your platform.
Bye
Giancarlo
