Hi, I moved up from a 2.0 to a 2.2 kernel today and found that in order to get the "newkernel" script to run I had to upgrade autorpm to the latest version, which was a bit suprising since I had upgraded autorpm a few weeks ago. There was no message about needing a later version of autorpm, the script just complained about not finding directories. I also found that I needed to run the sound configuration program, which makes sense since I am told that sound support is now done in the kernel

mount -t nfs linux.fnal.gov:/export/linux/52test /mnt/tmp cd /mnt/tmp/i386/fermi/kernel-2.2/ rpm -ivh newkernel-1.0-1.noarch.rpm PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin cd ../../RedHat/i386/RPMS/ rpm -Uvh autorpm-1.9.8.1-2.noarch.rpm newkernel sndconfig
