Yes I was.  As I stated.  When I try to boot into the new kernel, X does
not start & I then went to the command line.  Two additional questions. 
I have seen some other people describing similar problems.  They all
seem to mention booting to command line only (run level 3?) & not even
attempting to start X.  Will that make a difference?  Also, do the
nvidia drivers have to explicitly be for kernel ver.2.4-X.x.x?  or will
the current ones work for just about all flavors of 2.4-X.x .x?

Thanks to all who have replied.
