Interesting. I've looked at the SUSE kernel readme in the
kernel-source rpm, and it mentions an /etc/init.d/running-kernel
script whose job is to adapt the "generic" kernel sources in
/usr/src/linux to the particular kernel flavor such as kernel-desktop
one boots into using files in
/usr/src/linux-2.6.31.12-0.2-obj/x86_64/desktop. For some reason, my
machine does not have /etc/init.d/running-kernel, and some symlinks
between /usr/src/linux and
/usr/src/linux-2.6.31.12-0.2-obj/x86_64/desktop are missing as a
result, and that probably explains the issue.

Does anyone have the /etc/init.d/running-kernel script, and if so
which package contributes it (rpm -qf /etc/init.d/running-kernel)?

Thanks,
Vadym
