Hi Brian

You wrote(this time i got it right :-):

boot disk.

Can i run "make install modules_install" when i'm just using the
kernel-2.4.20-31.9.rpm, and not having the source rpm aswell ?

I did find some hints about that, when searching for this, bu they where
all refering to a source-code compiled script.

I did try to install the new kernel with rpm -iv kernel-2.4.20-31.9 and
the installation work. But when i tried the depmod -a 2.4.20-31.9, it
came with a lot of unresolved symbols.

So now i have patched everything but the kernel.

I havn't downloaded the documentation cd. 
Is all the How to's on that ? 
Is there a How to on upgrading the kernel using the rpm's without
compiling it.

In the old times up2date was able to do it, so it must be simple.

Henrik
