And I'm not talking about 2.4.3, I'm talking about 2.4.2 and modutils-2.4.2-14. Everything the Brooklyn CEO seems to sum up my frustrations. Using SuSE recommended updates with the recommended
methods
are my problem if they don't work? It's broken and no one at SuSE appears to be in slighest bit interested in giving me any sort of advice - they appear to be more interested in find ways to have me go away and drop
Yep. make config, make dep, make clean, make bzImage (or bzlilo), make modules, make modules_install, make install, a few cp commands, run lilo, and viola! And RPM's, thought those were supposed to take care of that stuff. At least vendor specific rpms into the same vendor specific distro/version. But, heck what do I know, I'm a newbie! -----Original Message----- From: Brooklyn Linux Solutions CEO [mailto:ruben@dsl254-112-136-sea1.dsl-isp.net] Sent: Monday, April 23, 2001 1632 To: Mads Martin Jørgensen Cc: crrey; suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] Support vs Support (Was: [SLE] util-linux and Kernel 2.4.3) the

That is a different issue. The support you get for the price of the box is *INSTALLATION* support. Not upgrade support.
And there is nothing wrong in wanting help, but how are we supposed to offer custom support for every single customer taken into consideratin what you pay for the box?
There should be no issue with a kernel upgrade unless the distro is negligent in it's design..... make xconfig make deps make clean make bzlilo make install The RPM's for the init upgrades and modprobe upgrades and the like should just work - regardless of the 2.4 kernel version. Ruben
