You are right about the misstyping 22115 for 2115 in the kernel line, however my /etc/sysconfig/init does contain those lines. There must be someting else that I did not do correctly.

I am having problems getting the new graphical boot of yarrow working. I upgraded from RedHat 9. Following the advise in the relase notes I installed rhgb from disk 1 and added rhgb to the command line in the grub grub.conf kernel line thus: kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.22115.nptl ro root=/ hdc=ide-scsi rhgb.
When I reboot I still get a text based bootloader response. What am I doing wrong?
Your kernel ID in the line shown above should be 2115, not 22115. That is probably just a typo in your post, not a copy from the grub.conf.
You can also check that you have GRAPHICAL=yes.
From /etc/sysconfig/init:
# anything else => new style bootup without ANSI colors or positioning BOOTUP=color # Turn on graphical boot GRAPHICAL=yes
