I followed your suggestion and now I have my kernel replaced. I, however, didn't. I saw this too late...I yum removed kernel then yum installed kernel.i686 and got a grubby error. Now my kernel doesn't appear at all in grub.conf Can someone tell me the proper way to get it back? Or if there's no proper way that doesn't involve reinstalling using anaconda, just paste me their one so I can modify it?
Before Lars' advice I ran into the same problem that now you are experiencing. Later on (I am too busy at the moment), I will tell you, Scott, how to escape from that. Paul
