Updating linux kernel headers

23-Sep-2019 17:37

If you do not have/want yum configurations, you can download the latest kernel and its dependencies from Red Hat portal and keep it ready on the server for installation. Always install new kernel package so that your old kernel still resides on server and you can boot it if your server/application is not behaving good with new kernel. update-initramfs: deferring update (hook will be called later) Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
