<pre wrap="">Kind Folks,
I am running into an issue that has me really bugged. I have one
machine that has the *2.6.11-1.27FC3smp* kernel and another with the
*2.6.11-1.27FC3* non-smp kernel. I need to use the smp version for a
project that only works with this version of FC3 that uses a USB 2.0
video device I designed. I have looked everywhere I know to figure out
how to get the smp kernel on the non-smp machine, and I can not seem to
back track the steps correctly.
I have tried yum every which way but loose, and can not get an smp
kernel period, to install or upgrade on the non-smp machine. Yum wants
to upgrade me to 2.6.12, and I don't want to do that.
On the machine that does not have the smp kernel, I tried copying all
the smp files (4) that were in /boot on the smp machine to the /boot
directory on the non-smp machine. I then added an entry in
/etc/grub.conf for the smp kernel boot. This does not work at all. This
issue makes me worry that Linux hard drives may be more difficult to
move from machine to machine in a pre-configured format than I had
wished????

<pre wrap=""><!---->
You need the SMP files from "/boot" (at least the vmlinuz and initrd
files) AND the entire module directory at
"/lib/modules/<kernelversion>-smp" directory on the non-SMP machine.
You also need to edit the /boot/grub/grub.conf file to include the SMP
kernel.
Of course, if you have the SMP binary RPM, copy that to the non-SMP
machine and force an install via "rpm -ivh kernel-whatever-smp.rpm".
That's the cleanest way to do it.

Rick,<br>
<br>
Have any idea where the source rpm for 2.6.11-1.27FC3smp can be
found? This rings a bell. Maybe this is what I did back in May when I
was creating the other machine that does have the smp kernel.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
BEST!<br>
