Hi,
I'm a bit confused about grub. FC4 seems to load kernels that aren't
listed in grub.conf. Is that expected?
For instance, uname -a shows that the most recent kernel (1637) is running:
[root@strawberry ~]# uname -a
Linux strawberry.domain.avtechpulse.com 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 #1 Wed Nov 9
18:19:37 EST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
but grub.conf has an older one (1447) specified:
[root@strawberry ~]# more /etc/grub.conf
# comments removed for brevity
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.12-1.1447_FC4)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 ro
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb
initrd /initrd-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4.img
Both kernel rpms (and others) are installed:
[root@strawberry ~]# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4
kernel-2.6.12-1.1456_FC4
kernel-2.6.14-1.1637_FC4
kernel-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4
kernel-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4
kernel-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4
So why is uname showing something different than what I've selected in
grub.conf? And why isn't yum updating grub.conf?
