What is the output of the command
rpm -qa | grep kernel
It may give you and idea of what kernels are installed currently. That may provide you with some direction as to proceed.

I tried the suggestion of running command rpm -e kernel-ntfs
1. None of the kernels listed in grub2 (2.4.x or 2.6.x) would boot. All kernel boots hang at "Initialising swap space". So I can't get the system to the state to run the rpm command.
2. I tried booting from the Fedora Core 2 CD-Rom into "rescue" mode. This successfully brought up linux command line
I then ran : "rpm -e kernel-ntfs" while in rescue mode
and all I get as response is:
Error: Package kernel-ntfs is not installed
So even if ntfs is the problem, I can't remove it from linux. I also can't boot any of the kernels to attempt to remove ntfs
So I can't recover linux currently
Any further suggesitons?
Thanks
Clive
