If you want to leave the old kernel in place but have the new kernel be the default (not a bad idea until you have confidence in the new kernel), just make sure the "default=" line in /etc/grub.conf is set to 0. If you want to remove the old kernel entirely, rpm -e kernel-<oldversion>. Other methods may screw up RPM-based management of the kernel files and he contents of grub.conf. -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs
