["Dan Stromberg" <dstromberglists@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a Linus 2.6.21 kernel packaged up as an RPM, modified slightly
to do the grub changes.  It's based on a heavily modified
kernel-source*.rpm from openSUSE.

I'm now trying to get this kernel to be loaded automatically as part
of an autoyast install.

I dumped the kernel into our RPM repository, but the kernel is not
being loaded for some reason.  If I remove the kernel-default, I get a
kernelless install, so I'm pretty sure I've got the right directory of
RPM's.

When I look at suse/setup/descr/packages, I don't see my kernel
listed.  Do I need to run some command to get it added?  Does it need
to appear in this file?

I also tried to add the kernel to the XML controlling the install with:
  <software>
    <kernel>kernel-2.6.21.7DRSwashere</kernel>

...however still no luck.  BTW, the actual kernel has "DRS-was-here",
not "DRSwashere" - in some contexts and not others the software seems
to want to strip the dashes.

What do I need to do to get this kernel loaded and made the default kernel?

Thanks!
