rpm is not complaining (lilo is):
> [root@host RPMS]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.2.16-3.i586.rpm
> kernel ##################################################
and:
> [root@host RPMS]# rpm -qa | grep kernel
> kernel-headers-2.2.16-3
> kernel-2.2.14-5.0
> kernel-utils-2.2.14-5.0
> kernelcfg-0.5-5
> kernel-2.2.16-3
> kernel-source-2.2.16-3
So, kernel-2.2.16-3.i586.rpm is installed without problems.
As well, Mike Burger says:
>> Also, instead of /boot/vmlinux-2.2.16-3, see if /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-3

It exists:
> [root@host RPMS]# ls /boot/vmlinuz*
> /boot/vmlinuz /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0 /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-3
(/boot/vmlinuz is a link to /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-3)
And Uncle Meat says:
>> And, before you do it (as I did once and I know others have) don't do -Uch

Yes! I did -ivh and now I have 2 source trees
> [root@host RPMS]# ls /usr/src/
> linux linux-2.2.14 linux-2.2.16 redhat
I repeat: lilo is complaining when I run 'lilo -v'...
Thanks,
