Description udaya 1999-10-13 17:17:22 UTC 
I have downloaded redhat linux 6.1 for i386.

I get the following error when installing:
kernel <= 2.2 conflicts with initscripts-4.48-1

Then, I also did a query on initscript rpm and got the
following:

[root@queen0 rpms]# rpm -qp --queryformat
'%{CONFLICTNAME}%{CONFLICTVERSION}\n'
initscripts-4.48-1.i386.rpm

kernel2.2

How are you installing it? VIA normal installation, or are you
installing the packages piece-by-piece?
Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 1999-10-13 19:40:59 UTC 
What kernel(s) do you have installed on the machines installing on,
and what version of RPM do you have installed?
Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 1999-10-13 20:06:59 UTC 
That would be the problem then; the initscripts from 6.1 will
not work with a 2.0 kernel; that's why the conflicts: is there.
