This is all I have installed:

glibc-common-2.3.4-2.13
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-9.1.98.EL
glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.13
glibc-2.3.4-2.13
glibc-2.3.4-2.13
glibc-headers-2.3.4-2.13

Anyway, I wiped out all traces of the files installed from the kernel
srpm and started from scratch.  It ran through completely without any
problem, even when not using setarch.

I'm trying to add the xfs and reiserfs module (the centosplus kernel
package has an unsupported which I don't want to use).  I realized
that it was you who packaged this unsupported kernel.  How did you go
about adding the module?  The procedure I used to add these in CentOS
4.1 i686 doesn't seem to work.

Thanks for all the responses I've been getting.  One thing I like most
about this mailing list is the quick response, much quicker than
others I've been on.
