An orig boot disk will not work because that kernel no longer exists. A boot disk made with the New kernel will not work because the New kernel was not properly installed and configured. The proper way to install a New kerel is to manually download the kernel and do rpm -ivh (New kernel), this will leave the old kernel intact and still bootable. Run lilo and then double check all your config files. Make a boot disk containing the New kernel. Reboot your system and boot to the New kernel. If there are no problem and after having run the said kernel for a period of time then update/install the headers and source for the New kernel using rpm -Uvh (headers) (source) Charles
