This morning, I did "yum update" on my wife's box. It did not update the kernel. I ran the command again, and there is a response that no updates are available. Her box is a Compaq Evo D300v Celeron. During the past couple of days, when I did "yum update", on my daughters box and mine (Dell Dimensions), the kernel was updated and in the GRUB menus now, there are two (2) Linux kernels to choose from, as well as the Win XP option, since these are all dual boot boxes. How can I...

Hello: Starting Friday afternoon, I blew away the installations on the three (3) boxes we use as Desktops. On two (2) of them (my Dell Dimension 2400 and my wife's Compaq Evo D300v), I have MS Windows XP and CentOS5 running. :-) On my daughters box (Dell Dimension 4300) I am having problems with the partitioning. Probably this is due to some mistake I have made, with regard to "Active" or "Primary" partitions? The HD has four (4) NTFS partitions on dev/...

My wife's box has a very intermittent problem, when booting from the Maxtor IDE hard drive. This has been going on for about 2 1/2 years.... The box is a Compaq EVO D300v for the Enterprise. When it boots, there is a SMART advisory from the BIOS that says failure is immenient. Occasionally, it will not boot, because the BIOS does not see the hard drive. I replaced the EIDE cable, but the problem of sometimes not seeing the hard drive on boot continues. I suspect i...

...~]$ Kai: That's the kernel that is on the CentOS 5 Install DVD. During the past few days, I did "yum update" on our 3 Desktops and I will now continue to do that, frequently, as if these Desktop boxes were Servers. In the 2 Dell Dimension boxes, the kernel updated. In this Compaq Evo D300v Celeron box, the kernel did not update. Lanny

...ied other files, which turned out to include the Driver for the NIC. I believe the audio and video Drivers are also on the CD I made last week. :-) I went ahead and wiped the drives on the boxes of my wife and daughter, since they were out of town. The installation on my wife's box (Compaq Evo D300v) was the easiest. All of the Drivers for the Compaq Evo were on the Dell Restore CD, with the exception of the Driver for an inexpensive store brand web cam we bought recently. I will need to buy OEM license's for that box and daughters box. More $ for Microsoft.... All of the Drivers for my...
