Hi

I'm upgrading to 2.4.18-10 (on redhat 7.3), and therefore need some files. On updates.redhat.com I found:
kernel-2.4.18-10.i686.rpm
kernel-bigmem-2.4.18-10.i686.rpm kernel-debug-2.4.18-10.i686.rpm
kernel-smp-2.4.18-10.i686.rpm

Do I need kernel-source.2.4.18-10.i686.rpm and kernel-doc-2.4.18-10.i686.rpm and if yes, where do I find it. I guess the doc is not too important, but the source seems to be important.

You want kernel-source.2.4.18-10.i386.rpm. The kernel-source package
is not compiled so it works just as well on 386 or a Quad P4 Xeon. The only difference is the config file used to compile the kernel. The config file can be found in the configs directory in the kernel source.

BTW- kernel-2.4.18-17.7.x is redhat's current eratta kernel. In addition your downloads may be a bit faster if you use a mirror.
