Oracle doesn’t make it easy to not use their [broken] kernels. I’ve been extracting the .iso release media into a separate directory, moving the UEK rpms out, regenerating the repository data, and pointing the installs at that directory. And because I do have some requirements for UEK, I’ll import those RPMs into a channel. When necessary, subscribe the new client to the UEK channel (this can be done in a kickstart file….) and install the UEK kernel rpms.

Does anyone know how to have only the Redhat Compatable Kernel install and not the UEK? I tried the parameter to remove kernel-uek and kernel-uek-firmware but it's still the default kernel. I also added kernel and kernel-firmware thinking that maybe it needed the rhel compat kernel defined during the KS. But still my final system defaults to having the UEK booted. I'm probably missing something very simple so I thought I'd ask. Thanks! Glen Collins This message may contain confidential material from Land O'Lakes, Inc.
