Thank you very much. Sorry to sound silly, but I have no grub.conf under
/etc. I did not install this system by myself, but received it "as is".
So, I understand this file is optional and not mandatory. For what does it
serve, and what do I need to do in my case?
Thanks, Rafi.

Subject: Re: changing default kernel with Grub


you need to change the value of the 'default=xx' line
in '/etc/grub.conf'.  in grub, 0 means the first entry
(according to the layout of your kernel entries).

the ff. example sets grub to load Red Hat Linux 7.3
with kernel 2.4.18-5

boot=/dev/hda
default=1
timeout=10
title Red Hat Linux 7.2 (2.4.9-31)
....
....

title Red Hat Linux 7.3 (2.4.18-5)
....
....
title Red Hat Linux 7.3 (2.4.18-3)
....
....


so if you want to use 7.2 (2.4.9-31), set default=0. 
Remember: NO Need to RUN grub or grub-install for the
changes to take effect.
