[nf5002 at eros boot]$ sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd1,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda1 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/sda default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd1,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title CentOS (2.6.18-92.el5) root (hd1,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.el5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.el5.img I only have one kernel listen which is why I assume I am behind, I think yum has been getting new kernels but not building them and editing the grub meun. vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.el5 and initrd-2.6.18-92.el5.img is the only kernel in /boot? I don't want to be a bother so can point me at a resolution i.e. point me at some documentation on how to make a new kernel image out of the resouces in /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 and I shall do so. Many thanks to you all so far your help is greatly appreciated. -- Regards, James. http://www.jamesbensley.co.cc/ There are 10 kinds of people in the world; Those who understand Vigesimal, and J others...?
