Hi. I just noticed I had a CentOS 5.3 system that I updated to CentOS 5.5 a few days ago, and I just ran "yum -y update" again to get the latest kernel, and I just noticed it still has the old 2.6.18-128 kernel instead of the new 2.6.18-194.17. What gives?
/etc/grub.conf points at 2.6.18-194.17, but when I reboot, 2.6.18-128 comes up.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, -at
