Hi every one
I am using RHL version 5, kernel 2.0.32
I downloaded kernel-source-2.0.35-2.i386.rpm
and kernel-headers-2_0_35-2.i386.rpm to upgrade my kernel
used the command rpm -i kernel-source-2.0.35-2.i386.rpm
to unstall the new kernel, it went fine and then it created
a directory under /usr/src/linux-2.0.35
then i made config makemenu to have the new kernel
it went all fine and i got a vmlinuz file under the same
directory, the size of the file is almost 1Mb and when i wanted
to do the lilo command, it told me the size is too big,
then i deleted by stupidity the new vmlinuz file and the whole
/usr/src/linux-2.0.35 directory, now when i want to do the same
step from the begining using the rpm -i kernel-source-2.0.35-2.i386.rpm
command, it tells me the package is already installed and so i can not
do the install any more,
please guide me how to correct the problem
thank you in advance
