I installed yesterday's kernel update for RH 7.3, and then my Sony notebook wouldn't reboot. After various futzing, I can get it up manually, but not with my grub.conf. Manually I can get it to boot this way: - At grub screen hit "c" for command line grub> root (hd0,0) grub> kernel /vmlinuz-2

I thought I would try updating the kernel on the 7.3 box with up2date instead of removing it from the list in the alert notification tool. Everything worked ok, but when I tried to start X it didn't work. So I ran Xconfigurator, still didn't work. Move some stuff like .Xauthority, .gnome* etc.

What it means is to edit the lilo configuration file (/etc/lilo.conf) to put in the parameters for the new kernel you installed, and then run lilo (lilo ) to update the boot record to see the new kernel. On Wed, 12 Jun 2002, ebinc wrote: > Hi I'm really new! > I just updated the kernel with a
