I seem to have inherited two Novell
OES servers. Please please please excuse my ignorance, as this is the first time I've used any of the
OES Linux systems, so I am really a noob. I have, however, other experience with many other distros, so I should be able to figure it out rather quickly.
First, how the heck do I tell what version of
OES Linux I have? cat /proc/version just gives the kernel version, which doesn't seem to help much.
Second, I have upgraded just about everything with rug, but any time I touch any of the kernel patches, I can no longer boot the system. Thank god for VM snapshots.
Is there a quick and dirty how-to on how to actually upgrade the kernel?
