[LON-CAPA-admin] Kernel upgrade: segmentation fault

[Lars Jensen]

Do we have a list of the rpm's needed for lon-capa. This machine is
dedicated to lon-capa, so I don't want to install anymore than I need.
Could someone please let me know what rpm's to install, or what 
installation options to choose, when doing a RH 7.3 fresh-install.

Thanks,
Lars.
