What is the "right" way to upgrade the kernel in an openSUSE release?
I don't mean to update within a version - eg 2.6.18 for 10.2 - I mean
to go up to the next version - eg 2.6.18 to 2.6.25.

I don't know what the "right" way is, but I've just updated the kernel
on my 10.3 install. I downloaded the latest 2.6 kernel (2.6.24.3),
unpacked, made oldconfig and installed it. I did have a small problem
as the kernel settings had debugging enabled, which created a huge
initrd. I switched those off, and that was more or less it. Ok,
apparmor isn't working, but I'm sure there's a suitable SUSE patch for
that.
