Re: RHEL kernel update install problem!

Sancho,

The grub boot list is constructed from /etc/grub.conf which normally is a softlink to /boot/grub/grub.conf. Each entry in the grub menu starts with the "title" tag, so you can try to construct a new entry along the same lines, referencing your new kernel and (usually) corresponding initrd. The "default" tag indicates which entry will be started by default. First entry is entry 0.

Hope this helps,

Herta

I have tried to perform the last two kernel updates and for what--ever reason the kernels 37.0.2EL and wound up in the /boot directory but do not appear in the GRUB boot list.

This problem occurred once before but I cannot locate my notes about the way I solved the problem. I vaguely recall that I had to get into the *boot partition* (as opposed to /boot as I see it mounted) to do something-- but don't have the time to fool around.

Would some kind soul send a FAQ ref or give me a clue as to where to turn to solve the issue.

Many thanks in advance....
Jack
