hello there, ive had a look to see what kernal i have and it says its a fc4 kernal
check to see what the OS is and its FC6
 
now when i try to do 'yum update kernal' it says there isnt any updates to make
 
when i try to do yum update i get an error about the kernal
 
any ideas?
 
Can you provide us with this information:
 
Code:
# yum list installed | grep kernel
......
# cat /etc/*-release
......
Those two commands .. thanks

i eneded up formatting the machine, as i need to get it up and runnign again , ive left this one as fedora core 4 and nto updated seems to be fine.
 
the results yum list installed grep kernel showed fedora core 4 smp and devel
 
car /etc/release shows fedora core 5 bordeux
 
 
i had tried before formatting upgrading to fedora 6 but got the same results with the kernel staying the same
