Unhappy Anybody know of an older version of Sk98lin rpm file

Hey guys,

I am so close to surfing the net...I can feel it except for this annoying shark in the water! I have an older kernel version of FC4 - which is 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4. All of the sk98lin rpm files for my Marvell yukon ethernet 88e8036 at http://atrpms.net are for kernel versions 2.6.14 or newer. I tried installing those newer version rpm files on my old kernel version but guess what? Denied! Does anyone know of a way of getting the appropriate rpm files for my kernel version (I looked at these forums, google, kosmix but no luck), or some trick in getting around the version problem, or magically updating my kernel without a network connection. Thanks a lot guys

Cheers
Velvohm

Seperately packaged kernel modules only work for the exact kernel version, which is one reason why seperately packaging them is not ideal.

As to updating without network, perhaps downloading the rpms by hand, burning to CD or copying them over somehow, then using rpm to install them. Yes, very tedious, and you'll need to manually do deps like udev, but at the end you will be able to yum update the rest.
