You just need to reinstall the kernel and it should work.


Sorry for being so ignorant, but I don't understand "just reinstall the kernel". I don't know how to translate that into a specific yum or rpm command.

However, since this is a crash-and-burn system, I'm going back to a virgin install with netinstall of 7 2003. I'll let you know what the results are.
