I am suspecting that you are looking at /etc/grub.conf which is supposed to be a symlink to /boot/grub/grub.conf and somehow this is no longer a symlink, but rather a file of its own, which is not being read. This is how this should look. (adjusted for screen wrap in a mail program) # ls -la /etc/grub.conf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Sep 27 2008 /etc/grub.conf -> ../boot/grub/grub.conf What are the contents of your /boot/grub/grub.conf? That is the actual file. What is the default set to there? Barry _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
