Thanks again.
Two quick questions:
1. My current installation of RedHat is with a kernel version of 2.4.18-3 (original distribution).
Should I upgrade my kernel to 2.4.19-1 first for coinciding with those from Score?
2. Where is the kernel source after I install kernel-score-2.4.19-1SCORE.i386.rpm? I can't
find them under /usr/src.
Regards,
Huiqun Zhou
