I have a server with a fresh install of Centos 5.1 (kernel version 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen). When i install ASL-2.0 the kernel doesn't get updated. Is there any specific reason for this? Is it safe to force an update from the ASL version?

Xen? Is this a virtual server?

nope, It's a clean install on a Dell Poweredge R300 with quad core Xeon.

What does rpm -q kernel say?

its probably because you're using that xen kernel, and dont have the normal kernel installed on the system. In effect it looks like a completely different package on your box. "yum install kernel" might do the trick.

That did the trick, i tried "yum update kernel" but that didnt give any result.
Thanks for the fast responses
