Hello,

I recently changed some of our machines from booting with Lilo to Grub. Now when doing a kernel upgrade nothing is said about having to reboot the computer like it did with Lilo.

I see nothing in the logs about the computer using the new kernel so I assume you still need to reboot to run the new kernel? Can anyone set me straight on this? Logs below on Kernel upgrade.....

Thanks,

Ken
