earlier I posted about ln -f not working...but it seemed to work for my
test.
this is what I mean:
root at stang:/usr/src# ls -l
total 34276
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Apr 28 17:16 linux -> linux-2.6.5/
drwxr-xr-x 15 573 573 744 Apr 28 17:11 linux-2.4.25/
drwxrwxr-x 18 500 500 1152 Aug 5 17:21 linux-2.6.5/
drwxrwxr-x 18 500 500 624 Aug 5 17:20 linux-2.6.7/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35092228 Aug 5 17:19 linux-2.6.7.tar.bz2
root at stang:/usr/src# ln -sf linux-2.6.7 linux
root at stang:/usr/src# ls -l
total 34276
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Apr 28 17:16 linux -> linux-2.6.5/
drwxr-xr-x 15 573 573 744 Apr 28 17:11 linux-2.4.25/
drwxrwxr-x 18 500 500 1152 Aug 5 17:21 linux-2.6.5/
drwxrwxr-x 18 500 500 624 Aug 5 17:20 linux-2.6.7/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35092228 Aug 5 17:19 linux-2.6.7.tar.bz2
root at stang:/usr/src#
shouldn't ln -sf linux-2.6.7 linux make linux by a sym link to linux-2.6.7?
