Issue: My laptop has been acting up since my latest kernel update (at least that is what I am hoping it is). I had run a clean-up on my machine to remove the older kernels. I would like to re-install the most recent kernel.
Resolution:
[root@neo ~]# yum list --showduplicates | grep kernel.x86_64 | tail -2 | head -1 | awk '{ print "kernel-"$2 }' | xargs yum install
[root@neo ~]# yum list --showduplicates | grep kernel.x86_64 | tail -2
Unable to read consumer identity
kernel.x86_64 2.6.32-279.1.1.el6 rhel-x86_64-workstation-6
kernel.x86_64 2.6.32-279.2.1.el6 rhel-x86_64-workstation-6
Resolution:
[root@neo ~]# yum list --showduplicates | grep kernel.x86_64 | tail -2 | head -1 | awk '{ print "kernel-"$2 }' | xargs yum install
[root@neo ~]# grep 2.6.32-279.1.1.el6 /boot/grub/grub.conf
