Run something like |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
emerge --noreplace =gentoo-sources-2.6.38-r1 |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
to add the kernel you want to keep to your world file, or just add the |
| 14 |
kernel with it's specific revision to the world file manually. At that |
| 15 |
point emerge won't delete it and you won't get any messages until |
| 16 |
portage maintainers remove it from portage. |
