yum remove kd*
yum remove gno*
yum clean all
yum update
worked for all the dependencies, removed gnome and kde related bits
but did not fix the kernel as of yet.
thanks

You can do the whole update with yum update --exclude=kde-filesystem
Maybe your kernel error is due to a dependency problem. You can also
uninstall and reinstall the new kernel if the problem persists.

replying to myself,
have the vmlinuz-2.6.25-14.1axp.fc8.alpha kernel and this image, seems
a little small:
-rw------- 1 root root 32768 2008-07-25 18:54
initrd-2.6.25-14.1axp.fc8.alpha.img
but booting it with this setup:
1:1/vmlinuz-2.6.25-14.1axp.fc8.alpha
initrd=/initrd-2.6.25-14.1axp.fc8.alpha.img
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 selinux=off
0:1/vmlinuz-2.6.23.10-97.fc8.1axp
initrd=/initrd-2.6.23.10-97.fc8.1axp.img root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
selinux=off
results in a kerenl panic.
any hints?
thanks

Following your notes from april, doing a yum clean all, then yum
update -
i get 126 packages to update including this -
Transaction Check Error:
file /usr/share/applnk/.hidden/.directory conflicts between
attempted installs of kde-filesystem-4-14.fc8.noarch and
kdebase-3.5.8-32.fc8.alpha
and i don't need or want kde or gnome, this is a server...

Btw, you have an old kernel installed and should update it :) After
running the yum update, you need to manually modify the /etc/aboot.conf
too, see my blogpost on

I will see if I can find a promise or one of the other sata cards and
test this.

I can't give you a definitive answer, but we know some things:
- You can't boot from a SATA card because of the SRM, you'll always need
a disk to contain the boot files.
- A card which has kernel drivers should work, have a look
in /lib/modules/yourkernelversion/kernel/drivers/ata for compiled
drivers. You can also look at the /boot/config-yourkernel file under the
"SCSI Transports" section for compiled drivers. m means that they are
compild as modules, the .ko files.
So let us know when you have tried :)

I would like to add some disk drives to a couple of alphas.
I am interested in adding SATA drives, the price is right, but am not
sure where to
look for compatible PCI card sata interfaces.
Has any one tried this? does it work with FC8? is there a list of
cmpatible cards?
thanks
