Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


In my case, I am not expecting it in the disto repository. Originally I
built DRBD RPMS from source and installed from there. My hope is that
someone can confirm that upgrading the kernel and just rebuilding the RPMS
from source and upgrading them will work.

I've also been cautious about this, since DRBD is an external kernel
module... I have to make sure a newer kernel version has the module
for it in yum or I'd be booting without support. I'm using CentOS 4.x
- but I feel the same pain.

Maybe someone can shed some light on a way to alleviate this?
