From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: Hello, While trying to upgrade (up2date or manual rpm -Fvh) the kernel on a fully updated Fedora Core2 based machine (Compaq DL380), the rpm install process complains about a missing megaraid module (the Compaq DL380 raid controller), and as such, it cannot create the needed initrd, and in consequence, the kernel cannot be upgraded. The previous version of the kernel, 2.6.8-1.521smp, did include this module. The current situation requires compilation of the new kernel manually on every machine, instead of the usual seamless and automatic update mechanism. If you could please release an updated release of 2.6.9-1.3_FC2 kernel (both smp and non smp, i686 arch), and remain consistent with the previous release of the kernel so that upgraded can work, I'll be much obliged. thanks, --Ariel Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-smp-2.6.9-1.3_FC2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Fully up2dated FC2 on Compaq DL380 2. Run up2date 3. Chose the kernel packages and the error will appear when rpm attempts to install the packages. Actual Results: rpm fails, initrd fails to be created, fails on a dependancy requiring the 'megaraid' module to exist in the modules directory. Expected Results: Clean installation of the kernel packages, upgrading the previous FC2 kernel update. Additional info:
