[linux-lvm] lvcreate and lvremove issues

[Romain Cherchi]

Thank you very much for your help and responding so quickly.

I indeed updated my system using the up2date redhat utility right after the
product activation.

Everything when right except for 2 packages:
- kernel
- kernel-smp

There was a package dependency problem.  The message was:

    To solve all dependencies for the RPMs you have selected, The following
    packages you have marked to exclude would have to be added to the set:

    Package Name                      Reason For Skipping
    ======================================================================
    kernel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL            Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-devel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL      Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-doc-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL        Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-hugemem-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL    Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-hugemem-devel-2.6.9-34.    Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-smp-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL        Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-34.0.1.    Pkg name/pattern
    kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.80          Pkg name/pattern

Unresolvable chain of dependencies:
kernel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL                   conflicts with ipw2200-firmware <
2.2
kernel-smp-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL               conflicts with ipw2200-firmware <
2.2

The following packages were added to your selection to satisfy dependencies:
Package                                Required by
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please modify your package selections and try again.

I don't really know how to deal with this message in up2date so I just
unchecked the 2 packages and went ahead.

Right now, my kernel is still 2.6.9-34.

Do you know how to fix the problem with up2date? ... or should I download
the rpms and do the update myself ?

Regards
