Hi There uname -r does answer: 2.4.20-8 the old kernel I do not use grup or lilo. I start on a boot disk. Its running under vmware and has a partition on the disk, so a had to start it with a (virtuel)disk. The hd partition hasn't changed. And i don't se anything else on the boot disk that could point to the old kernel. where does uname get the kernel version from ? Henrik -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Steven J.

If so, you should figure out how you got to be running a different kernel from what's in /boot. If, for example, you use grub, maybe grub.conf points to the wrong partition for its kernel.
