You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
cman: Depends: rhcs-modules-4
gfs-tools: Depends: rhcs-modules-4
gnbd-client: Depends: rhcs-modules-4
gnbd-server: Depends: rhcs-modules-4
gulm: Depends: rhcs-modules-4
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
veggieboy@server1:~$ apt-get -f install

nearly everything i try to install depends on rhcs-modules-4
why cant I install them on a linode?
thanks
ryan.
Kernel images are irrelevant to Linodes, because you have to use the kernels provided by Linode.com - but you should still be able to install one.
so i can install a new kernel and grub but the linode will ignore them.
ok.
now that got me to install davfs
but. when i try to mount a webdav it gives the error:
Kernel does not support coda,or the coda-module is not loaded.
hmm.. does this mean i cannot use coda with user mode linux and linode…
please say it aint so…
You can try asking for coda support to be added to the next kernel build - if it's useful and stable, caker can be persuaded to add stuff.
Edit: OK, you already asked in another thread.
