Re: mkinitrd error, not sure if I can force

yes you can do that.

I have done 2-3 time in past with RHEL3 and works.

Red Hat Admin,



I'm trying to upgrade my kernel. There are dependencies. They are as
follows. The mkinitrd dependency is old; I'm on a later version. Can I
just force this install? What rpm flags should I use? TIA!





admobrie@listserv3:/listserv $ rpm -qa|grep mkinitrd

mkinitrd-4.1.18-2



admobrie@listserv3:/listserv $ sudo rpm -ivh mkinitrd*4.2.1.6-1*.rpm
