Upgrade to kernel 2.6.30 ?

Hi,

I try to install virtualbox-ose but pacman complain
"virtualbox-modules: requiert kernel26>=2.6.30"
Effectivly, "uname -a" return "2.6.29-ARCH"

How to upgrade to kernel 2.6.30 ?

File "/etc/mkinitcpio.d/kernel26.kver" say "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE"...

Thanks

is my fault. i've been sleapy when i read tpowa`s message and push virtualbox-modules.
upgrade your system with pacman -Syu --ignore virtualbox-modules until the kernel is moved to core.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

When do you think the kernel will be moved  to the core ?
