Kernel: 2.6.18.8-domU-linode7 (Latest 2.6)

thank you,I really needed this.

I'm a litte confused since the kernel version reported in the Dashboard is "Latest 2.6 Series (2.6.18.8-domU-linode7)" but the VM itself reports:

$ uname -r
2.6.23.8-domU-linode2

which isn't in the list of current kernels unless it has been superseded since it hasn't been rebooted in a while.

That said, in Dashboard -> Linode Configuration Profiles -> Create Linode Configuration Profile the only options available for Kernel are:

2.6.18-domU-linode4

2.6.18.8-domU-linode5

2.6.18.8-domU-linode7

Latest 2.6 Series (2.6.18.8-domU-linode7)

Recovery - Finnix (kernel)

Didn't notice this with any of the old kernels, but on startup the console is getting spammed with:

modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-domU-linode7/modules.dep: No such file or directory

mkdir /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ depmod -a

@mwalling:

mkdir /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/
depmod -a

Probably not (Gentoo):

edison ~ # mkdir /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ -p
edison ~ # depmod -a
depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented
