Hi -

I have a noob kernel question.

I have a package with the following Kernel Parameter reqs:

Kernel Parameter Setting
semmsl
250

semmns
32000

semopm
100

semmni
128

shmmax
536870912

shmmni
4096

shmall
2097152

file-max
65536

ip_local_port_range
1024–65000

The package updates the params to the required value on insall if they are less than the req'd value.

With some packages, like Asterick, you can simply elect to not install components that are incompatible with the rapid kernel.

But on a pack such as above, is there anything in place that will simply prevent the package from modiying the kernel?

Generally speaking, will attempts to modify the rapid kernel (if the above would do so) simply prevent the install or will it wreck my VPS and/or violate policies?

Thanks in advance.
