As Johnny five would say, "More input!" "How" are you upgrading? rpm -i or rpm -u because if it is "-u" that is the reason you are having problems. You have to do an "-i" install if you want the kernel to work. Cheers -- Al Victor Richardson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I am trying to upgrade

Well, if you do "make xconfig" you can see all the options that you have now, and then change them if you want. And I think "make oldconfig" will keep all your old options, and only ask you for input if there is something new in the kernel. > How do i find what options i have in the kernel, so i

Yep, make those soft links. A flashing red link means that the link is broken, and that it doesn't point to an existing file. So once you fix those links LILO should work just fine. > I (again assume) that System.map-2.2.16-9mdksecure needs to be linked to > System.map@ and vmlinuz-2.2.16-9mdksec
