So I did a reboot, but for some reason, it continues to boot the second
entry, image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-28.7. Can this have something to do with
the name too long issue?
Yes. Remove all occurrences of ".legary" from lilo.conf and re-run "lilo".
I have both rh72 with lilo and a rh8 server using the grub bootloader.
In the past when I downloaded and updated a kernel manually it was rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.20-*. This way the previous kernel is still available as backup , would a rpm -Fvh overwrite the kernel-2.4.20-28.7.
thx's
