First of all, why bother update to 5.5, when you can update to
5.8? Many bugs have been fixed since 5.5. Do you really want to
run into those?<br>
<br>
OCFS2 and the kernel have to be upgraded at the same time. In other
words, you have to make sure you install both the kernel and the
OCFS2 module that goes with it at the same time, then you reboot
into the new kernel with the new OCFS2 module. The easiest thing to
do is to just run yum update, and let it update to the latest
package versions, and then install the OCFS2 package for the kernel
that got installed.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Herbert.<br>
