Boot your system with the old kernel and run: mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-jaume 2.6.18-jaume (on older systems it will be mkinitrd instead) Then make sure /boot/grub/menu points to this initrd in the proper section (or edit lilo.cof and run lilo if that is your system) Stuart -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
