On 12 Feb 1999 17:04:27 -0000, Timothy Murphy did say with great verbosity:
:It seems curious that you don't include the kernel itself.
:My impression is that there used to be a 2.2 kernel RPM at redhat,
:but that it has been removed.
:Is that correct?
:[In fact it didn't work for me.]
Hi,
Sorry, but we aren't about to produce a kernel RPM for several reasons,
primarily we feel a generic "Everything you'll ever need" type of kernel
binary distribution aproach is not as stable as building for a specific
machine or small group of specific machines.
But, there should be a kernel SRPM that is available from Red Hat's Rawhide
distribution.
Regards,
Jim
