Good point again Reindl. I've not broken the system, it's just I want to decide when the new kernel should be booted. My reason is I've had the kernel version change and that has been buggy and broke my system. So I'd rather take control myself over when my box moves to a newer kernel version. It's no problem for me to mount the GrubBoot partition and edit grub.conf manually, after making a backup of that file first, and then reboot the system.
