It is about idea what to do, messed scripts etc. There is another bug about scripts. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=304125 The correction is easy, but I do not like removed old kernel and libraries to, so I'm thinking how to bypass embedded scripts with my own that will do what I want to. The kernel update rpm is anyway simple package with few files. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
