If you have to mess something up, I advise messing up grub.conf. At least that can be fixed on the fly. Being able to edit boot parameters has saved me several times now. I've since copied Debian's update-grub script and edited it for a Gentoo system. It's nifty. Copy the kernel to /boot, run update-grub, and it updates your grub.conf. It uses the same parameters for all kernels (though it does provide alternates), so I can see situations in which it wouldn't quite do the trick. -- Marshal Newrock, Simon's Rock College of Bard Caution: product may be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
