If you could give me the commands to get the info I will have ago tonight.
It's my mail server but I will risk a reboot to note the exact message.
But as far as I remember it's the one as posted in the other posting but not for the same reason obviously.
Regards Roger

Roger,
What exact error are you getting and what does your grub.conf look like? Also what are the contents of your /boot directory? Some of this information might help in tracking down your problem. You can go back to the latest working boot configuration which is a reason I always leave it and try again. That is probably simplest. If that still causes you problems repost and we'll see if we can't help you fix it.

Are you using grub or lilo? Not that it matters but the config is a little different. Make sure you have the new kernel in the config file. Make sure you have the initrd to match your version of the kernel. If not use mkinitrd to create the initrd. Read the manpage for the syntax, it's pretty simple. I've never had this happen to me using up2date but that doesn't mean it can't. I don't use labels for my partitions, I typically just boot the root device so if you are using labels it may be a function of loading the modules using the ramdisk(initrd).
DrewGRUB with a straight off the CD type install spread over 2 drives. root should be on hda1 as far as I remember. Might it be easier to remove the latest kernel and try again? I have made no changes to GRUB
