There's no reason to switch the kernel symlink.
You should be able to just add the new kernal to the grub files in the /boot directory
(this allows you to boot to either the regular kernel or the realtime kernel by just selecting a menu item at boot time.
read up grub... unfortunate the complete documentation in one of those dispicable Texinfo files rather than a man file.
Unless you use emacs regularly, pinfo is easier to use than info, so
pinfo grub.
Ok I can do that :). I also discovered that there is a kernel source available kernel-rt. You only see it when you search for it in zypper (in yast2 it's invisible). I currently have the 2.6.22.9-0.4 kernel-source version installed, how do I install the 2.6.22.5-31 kernel-source next to it? # zypper search kernel | package | kernel-rt | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-rt_debug | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-source | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-source | 2.6.22.9-0.4 | x86_64 | package | kernel-syms | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-syms | 2.6.22.9-0.4 | x86_64 # yast [Filterv] [Actionsv] ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────── │ │Name │Avail.
