no, very obviously they try to help and YOU fail to give the information. mount /boot Make grub.conf point to vmlinuz like this: title=2.6 root (hd0,0) kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda3 gentoo=nodevfs noexec=on nmi_watchdog=1 for security reasons, a second entry like this is a smart idea: title=2.6.old root (hd0,0) kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz.old root=/dev/sda3 gentoo=nodevfs noexec=on nmi_watchdog=1 because make install copys the bzimage, renames it, adds the version to the name, creates a vmlinuz symlink and a vmlinuz.old symlink to the old kernel version, that had vmlinuz point to it. And it copys System.map (which is important. make a symlink from /usr/src/yourusedsources (like 2.6.16.14) to /usr/src/linux make menuconfig make all modules_install install umount /boot reboot. What happens? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
