Thanks for the suggestion Simon. However, I think my kernel and kernel-mods match -- unless I'm reading this wrong:
locate afs | grep ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-78.0.1.EL/extra/openafs/openafs.ko $ uname -a Linux 2.6.9-78.0.13.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 7 17:45:52 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I thought since the kernel says its SMP that I might need http://openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.8/rhel4/x86_64/kmod-openafs-smp-1.4.8-1.1.2.6.9_78.EL.x86_64.rpm but attempts to install that fail with the error: error: Failed dependencies: kernel-smp-x86_64 = 2.6.9-78.EL is needed by kmod-openafs-smp-1.4.8-1.1.2.6.9_78.EL.x86_64 Suggested resolutions: So, I'm little lost. Enlighten me please.
