Description Michal Jaegermann 2001-06-12 00:38:16 UTC
Description of Problem:
A way in which /etc/rc.d/init/nfslock scripts finds KERNVER and
KERNREL is very fragile and breaks if somebody will use a kernel
which will not follow _the current_ Red Hat naming convention.
This is usually the case with custom kernels.

The same action is performed in /etc/rc.d/init/nfs in quite a bit
better way even if different names are used.  Strangely enough
is not adopted but badly reinvented.

I thought that I was already complaining about that in the past
but cannot find now the corresponding report and my records also
do not show it.
