Hello,

I'm trying to setup yum to upgrade my system but not the kernel.
I tried exclude=kernel* in the '/etc/yum.conf' file but obviously this doesn't 
work.

(note : reason is I'm using some applications that need recompilation of their 
specific modules per kernel which start to be cumbersome as kernel is often 
upgraded)

Bye,
Bruno
