It seems everybody is out of ideas why yum is not updating the kernel. The following kernels are installed in /boot:
vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5 vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5
I originally installed CentOS 5.0 via CD. Yum automatically updated to 5.1 including kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.
The kernel that came with CentOS 5.1 was kernel-2.6.18-53. Could you post your:
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
I misspoke. Yum installed kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14 October 13, 2007 according to yum.log. So, yum appears to have worked *once* updating the kernel. Looking in CentOS vault, I saw .15 which gives me a time frame for what it's worth. All I did was add rpmforge. I have removed it with no help. I will post any file related to this mystery when requested. Time wise, I have spent at least 4 days attempting to locate this failure. Here is the file you requested:
# CentOS-Base.repo # # This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for CentOS. # The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the # update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and # geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates # unless you are manually picking other mirrors. # # If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the # remarked out baseurl= line instead. # #
