I'm trying to locate build 166 of the k_athlon rpm package, because it's what I need to work with Win4Lin. The normal ftp sites give me build 144, because that's what came with SuSE 9.0. The update site (Yast Online Update) gives me build 192, which also doesn't work with Win4Lin. The update window shows that build 166 exists but doesn't give a way of selecting it, and I don't know where I can locate a copy.
I think you might be able to, if instead using "you", you directly ftp to the server. Otherwise, look at the equivalent directory (mine is 8.2) to "/var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt/i386/update/9.0/rpm/i586/k_athlon*" where you will see all patches for your kernel that were previously downloaded; in my case, I see: /var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt/i386/update/8.2/rpm/i586/k_deflt-2.4.20-100.i586.patch.rpm /var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt/i386/update/8.2/rpm/i586/k_deflt-2.4.20-101.i586.rpm /var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt/i386/update/8.2/rpm/i586/k_deflt-2.4.20-102.i586.rpm /var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt/i386/update/8.2/rpm/i586/k_deflt-2.4.20-96.i586.patch.rpm Those named *patch.rpm have to be applied to the previous kernel. Those without that name, can be installed directly. If there were three patches previous to the version you want, you have to apply the three in the correct order. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
