<title>User Space Dependencies on the Kernel</title>
<para>Fedora Core has support for clustered storage through the Global File System (GFS). GFS requires special kernel modules that work in conjunction with some user-space utilities, such as management daemons. To remove such a kernel, perhaps after an update, use the <code>su -c 'yum remove kernel-<version>'</code> command instead. The <code>yum</code> command automatically removes dependent packages, if necessary. </para>
