Russel,
May I propose a little change in the package name for future releases.
IIRC rpm considers kernel-2.4.20-18.9XFS1.3.0pre4 older than
kernel-2.4.20-18.9. Now if you 'rpm -Fvh *' in a directory which includes
errata rpms, the original RedHat kernel is installed even if you already
upgraded to the new XFS release, which is not what you want.
If you change the release to kernel-2.4.20-18.9.XFS1.3.0pre4, it doesn't
happen again.
Regards,
Simon
