BINGO! Only one time did the word 'title' appear in his grub.conf. So I looked at the LAST not FIRST 'kernel' line after 'title' and noted that the 'kernel' info there matched what actually booted. I surmise that grub reads the title-to-title section top-to-bottom discarding any earlier 'kernel' line if it hits a subsequent 'kernel' line. ******************************************************************* This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
