Hi,
The latest fedora kernel already has the CONNMARK support. I'd like to use it in my centos 4.2 server.
I know it is not as stable as the 2.6.9.x the comes with centos but it is an alternative to using the vanilla kernel.
I've managed to rebuild the rpm of the FC4 kernel in my Centos server but when trying to install I get
Failed dependencies: mkinitrd >= 4.2.15-1 is needed by kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4.root.i686 selinux-policy-targeted < 1.23.16-1 conflicts with kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4.root.i686
Any suggestions?
you need to update the dep chain downward. Also keep in mind that the fc4 kernel releases are often in quick succession and in most cases involve fix's. So you are going to be rebuilding the kernel often.
My recommendation would be to get the centos kernel, and build a patch for that - you can then just rebuild it to suit your own purpose.
