Understood. Here is were I am at. In my GRUB Menu I have kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.681_FC3 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 3 rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 In that order. I am trying to boot into console-mode-only. When I boot like this... I get "file not found" Do I need to re order or add/remove?
