I have a Centos 5.2 server used as a squid proxy server for quite sometime and was workin fine
after a power failure the system refused to boot
i jus see the grub boot load screen n then hangs
so using the space bar n with the arrow keys i selected my earlier kernel and it booted fine
i think that the latest kernel file i have that isvmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.17.el5xen is corrupted.
how could i restore it back
will yum upgrade solve the problem
appreciate ur help
regards
fabian
fabian,
if you installed from rpm - you could do this
rpm -qa | grep kernel
then whatever it puts out remove the bad one with
yum remove whateverkernel
then reboot and yum update to that kernel again
if it is hand rolled and installed, i dont have the info for you and you should know how to do that yourself
