Hi everyone,
I just upgraded to 5.6 and keep on getting the following error message:

A bit of history.... Last time yum update was done on that box, due to Hyper V issues, kernel crashed. I now know how to fix it, but back then we just went to a previous kernel version (modified grub.conf), which I believe now causes my current problems.
This box's main responsibility has to do with afs, so installing afs related package is kind of important..
Thank you! Asya
It looks like you are using OpenAFS packages built for a specific kernel - in this case the 5.5 kernel-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5. My guess would be that in updating to 5.6, yum has automatically removed that older kernel.
You need to get kmod-openafs packages that match the version of your currently running kernel. Where did you get these packages as they are not a part of CentOS?
