Hi!

I installed a 2.6.5-Kernel via rpm. The entry in the grub.conf file was
done by the system.
If I try to start the system with the newly installed kernel, it just
stops booting after the "Freeing unused kernel memory: 148k
freed"-message.
There are no errors like kernel-panic or something.

What shall I do now?

To at least get you back to a running condition, you could boot up with a rescue disk or self contained linux distro (like knoppix), mount your partition that has /boot on it, and change the vmlinuz link back to your old kernel. Don't know if you'll have to change your grub.conf file (in /boot/grub) or anything else. Maybe someone else can chime in.
