Given that the 5.3 release (plus updates) is still some indefinite time in the future, some people may want to take advantage of Alan J. Bartlett's pre-release kernels: http://centos.toracat.org/ajb/tmp/kernels/ See this Forum thread for discussion on the issues: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=18733&forum=37 There have also been problems with dependencies on newer packages (for instance ecryptfs-utils) for some "pre-5.3" test kernels. Can't vouch for the above. YMMV. Phil
