All, As part of https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887629 we need to install and test the latest kernel:stable kernel. Adding the repo in yast and checking, it does not show the -devel files to know that I am getting the same kernel setup I have with the kernel from 13.1/update. Also, I do *NOT* want to replace my current kernel, I simply want to install in-addition-to the current kernel. multiversion is set to include kernel in zypp.conf. I also have a question about the automatic menu-generation for grub2. I guess it will work, but I have not yet tried a kernel addition in opensuse with grub2. Any gotchas? That brings me to the real issue. In yast sw-management, when I select update for the various kernel packages, how can I confirm that it will install and leave the current kernel? Just rely on the multiverion setting, cross-fingers and pray? Would it just be better to install with 'rpm -ivh *.rpm' in a directory with the updated kernel packages? This seems like the simplest way. My current kernel packages are: kernel-default-devel-3.11.10-17.2.x86_64.rpm kernel-desktop-3.11.10-17.2.x86_64.rpm kernel-desktop-devel-3.11.10-17.2.x86_64.rpm kernel-devel-3.11.10-17.2.noarch.rpm kernel-firmware-20130714git-2.17.1.noarch.rpm kernel-source-3.11.10-17.2.noarch.rpm kernel-syms-3.11.10-17.1.x86_64.rpm kernel-xen-devel-3.11.10-17.2.x86_64.rpm mkinitrd-2.8.1-2.1.x86_64.rpm ucode-amd-20130714git-2.17.1.noarch.rpm Are there any packages I'm missing? I'll wait on the braintrust to make sure I don't install into a problem, but my plan would be to download the same packages from kernel:stable and install with rpm -ivh and presume zypp.conf multiversion would preserve my existing kernel, and grub2 menu generation would take place automagically making the new kernel available as it did with grub.
