I'm not sure how to answer that. I have a plain installation of CentOS 4.4 for x86_64 SMP (2.6.9-42.0.3), installed from the DVD. I am now running 2.6.9-42.0.8 built from the rpm package http://mirror.centos.org/centos-4/4/updates/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.9-42.0.8.EL .src.rpm using the fedora rpmdevtools, kernel-smp-devel and the "development tools" packages (from yum or the DVD). Does that help? -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of Jim Perrin Sent: Monday, February 12, 2007 2:22 PM To: CentOS mailing list Subject: Re: [CentOS] CentOS 2.6.9-42.0.8 issue - no keyboard after reboot > There are huge differences between these two config files, and I'm > wondering what the heck is messed up in the former such that it doesn't > work but the latter does, even on SMP? The one question which has not been addressed yet is 'what does your build environment look like?' This could have everything to do with why you continue to have problems with (re)building things. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
