Just to be sure, you realise I wrote those series of dots rather than a specific vmlinuz filename, because I don't know what yours is. I hope you actually typed in the one that you have, not the dots in my simplified example. You can probably just hit tab after typing /vm to complete the filename. -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
