Try uninstalling/reinstalling the kernel manually (with rpm) - and look for the error messages during install.
Tried that and got:
[root@epo kernels]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.6-1.435.2.3.i686.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:kernel ########################################### [100%] /sbin/mkinitrd: line 294: /sbin/nash: No such file or directory /sbin/mkinitrd: line 294: /sbin/nash: No such file or directory /sbin/mkinitrd: line 294: /sbin/nash: No such file or directory /sbin/mkinitrd: line 294: /sbin/nash: No such file or directory no temporary directory could be found mkinitrd failed [root@epo kernels]#
/sbin/nash is a link to /sbin/nash-i386 which is not on the system. What's in this file and how can I recreate it?
I encountered the same problem. I'm not sure how the /sbin/nash-i386 link came into being. I worked arround it with reinstalling mkinitrd rpm
rpm --replacepkgs -Uvh mkinitrd...rpm
