Update for kernel-thinclient

[Norman Gaywood]

Hi all,

Is there a way to update the kernel-thinclient kernel to be the latest SL
kernel?

I currently have some display hardware not supported by
kernel-thinclient-2.6.32-131.6.1.el6.i686.rpm<http://mplug.org/~k12linux/rpm/el6/i686/kernel-thinclient-2.6.32-131.6.1.el6.i686.rpm>

Yes, you can (for EL chroot):
Go to LTSP chroot:

su
cd /opt/ltsp/i386
setarch i386 chroot .
mount -t proc proc /proc

Update SL in Chroot:
yum update
yum clean all
yum --releasever=6.3 update sl-release
yum update
yum clean all

Install Generic SL kernel:
yum install kernel

That's all, now you have SL 6.3 latst kernel, and updated chroot.

Not quite :-)

umount /proc /## don't know if still the case but this used to mucks up
client /etc/fstab if you didn't
exit
ltsp-update-kernels ##so client has boot image for new kernel
ltsp-update-image ## if you are booting off nbd image,
