When I reboot my CentOS server I see the the menu with a timer but I cannot enter to edit my boot kernel by pressing 'e' key . Then the timer will expire and the boot process will begin . I want to be able to edit my kernel through grub edit so I asked if I can try for 'grub-install /dev/hdax' w/o any harm on my CentOS server . Do you mean I can edit my '/boot/grub/menu.lst' by vi the same as I want to do inside my grub edit ? Are they the same procedures ? Please confirm. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/attachments/20100201/fe8dd0ae/attachment-0005.html>
