I am by no means the expert on GRUB but I would question the "hdc=ide-scsi" switch on the kernel line in the menu file. I would delete the "hdc=ide-scsi" switch on that line and then try booting into the 2.4.18-27.8.0 kernel again. It won't hurt since you can still boot into the old kernel if necessary. > -----Original Message----- > From: James Jones [mailto:jamesjones01@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2003 8:44 PM > To: psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: kernel panic after kernel upgrade > > > Dave Tibbals wrote: > > >Take a look at /boot/grub/menu.lst It should look like the > following: > > > ># grub.conf generated by anaconda > ># > ># Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making > changes to this > >file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition.
