kernel panic after booting with new kernel 2.6.11.9

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, by link I mean using ln -s and removing the unusable kernel I built 
and just have vmlinuz be a soft link pointing to the kernel I want to 
boot.  I mainly use pico that is included with pine to edit grub.conf 
but pine is not included with fc3 so I will need to use another editor 
what is the easiest one to use?  bye On Tue, 17 May 2005, Janina Sajka
