Hi,
I am trying to install the kernel src rpm that I've downloaded from the CentOS ftp, kernel-2.6.9-22.EL.src.rpm. I hope to compile the kernel with XFS enabled. However, I have tried to simply run:
[root@se4 ~]# rpm -iv kernel-2.6.9-22.EL.src.rpm
and it complains back:
warning: group builder does not exist - using root warning: user builder does not exist - using root warning: group builder does not exist - using root warning: user builder does not exist - using root warning: group builder does not exist - using root warning: user builder does not exist - using root ....
then an rpm -q kernel-2.6.9-22.EL.src.rpm says: package kernel-2.6.9-22.EL.src.rpm is not installed
kernel-2.6.9-22.EL.src.rpm is a file name and not a rpm name
Anyone know what is going on??
But src.rpms are not handled the same as non src.rpm's. They do not go into the rpm database.
ps. I have tried to install the CentOSplus kernel with xfs and that is completely unstable for me.
I doubt that what your are attempting to do will make it any better.
