Re: RH7.3 not booting latest kernel

Yeah I'm not sure why, but it appears in /boot that the only kernel that
has an *.img file associated with it is that bigmem kernel.  I thought I
had up2date set to allow for kernel updates, but if I had up2date set to
skip kernel updates, would that make sense that all the other kernels don't
have img files associated with them?  Sorry if I'm completely n00bish here,
but I don't mess around with kernel stuff at all (obviously).

Interestingly enough  I have another box right here will an old drive from
the remote box I want to fix, and on that box (the one in front of me) I
can load the 2.4.20 kernel at boot up time from the graphical lilo menu.
