Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
There are missing man page(s) for these tools or config files:
 /sbin/installkernel, /sbin/new-kernel-pkg

If the man-pages are in a different package, please describe the details here.

In case the config file has the description inside and you think the upstream project will be unwilling to move from that documentation model, please post a comment describing this situation here and set the bug status to CLOSE WONTFIX.

Short description on how to create man pages can be found here:

 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Varekova/man-pages

The GSS folks will help us with man-pages creation. If a GSS person signs up to provide your missing manpage, (s)he will set this Bugzilla into Needinfo on him/herself and (eventually) attach the proposed text to this BZ. Your responsibility in that case is to review the manpage, include it in your package, and submit it upstream.

The deadline for manpages to make RHEL6 is
Fix Freeze - Only for Internal Beta 2 Test Issues
Manpage updates that do not arrive by that date will move to RHEL6.1

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further

man page svailable from ubuntu:
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/en/man8/installkernel.8.html

Man pages for installkernel and new-kernel-pkg are present in RHEL6.0-20100506.1 tree with grubby-7.0.15-1.el6.i686.rpm.

Moving to VERIFIED.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
