how can I force an upgrade to a newer kernel... I am on 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL but it is showing that2.6.9-11.EL is available... I get the message that I should reboot to test, but it never shows up in my boot list. The only instance available is 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL Thanks Dave -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org]On Behalf Of Pasi Pirhonen Sent: Saturday, August 20, 2005 12:16 PM To: CentOS mailing list Subject: Re: [CentOS] RE: trying to upgrade from Centos 4.0 to current --repair RPM database Hi, On Sat, Aug 20, 2005 at 10:03:17AM -0500, Bryan J.
