Hi,
I have these three kernels: 3.1.9, 3.2.5 and 3.2.6
There is a new kernel in -updates (3.2.7).
If I update to the new kernel, yum will want to remove 3.1.9.
Is there a possibility to set up yum to keep the older kernel (3.1.9) and to
remove 3.2.5 instead (the middle one)?
(There is the possibility to remove the middle kernel before each updates,
but it's not really convenient).
You could change the installonly_limit in /etc/yum.conf. If you set
it to 0, yum won't remove any kernels when a new one is installed.
You could then remove unwanted ones manually at your convenience.
