I have been running Red Hat 3.0.3 with kernel 1.2.13, and upgraded to kernel
2.0.28 (I think it was).  After that, it seemed to compile fine, but when I
did a shutdown -h now, it scrolled by for a while with something like an
error  about initrequest not found, and when I rebooted, I got an error
about not being able to mount anything in the fstab and the entire file
system is read only.  Argh.   Either way, I found the page at Red
Hat's site about upgrading to kernel 2.0 and the 11 rpm's that you need,
thought the link from the web page to the ftp directory with the 11 rpm's,
though it doesn't exist.  I figure that it should be
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/old-releases/redhat-3.0.3/i386/updates/2.0-kernel/RPMS/,
though there are 13 files there, including a readme.  Anyone know if this
is it?  And also, one of the rpm's there is kernel-source-2.0-1.i386.rpm.
If I have kernel 2.0.18 or 2.0.28 (I forget which) do I need that?

I guess I will have to entirely re-install it, which is really no big
deal...

If responding to the list, please at least CC me personally.

Thanks!
