It's possible that mkinitrd is having trouble building the initial image needed by the new kernel with your specific hardware configuration. You can try downloading the new rpm kernel and then install it without executing the POSTIN script: #rpm -Uvh --nopost kernel-2.6.23.14-107.fc8.i686.rpm and then run the mkinitrd manually with verbose param to try to get more info for the error: #mkinitrd -v -k /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 -i /boot/initrd-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 Of course, if the above has success, then you need to modify too your grub.conf file in order to reboot with the new kernel. I have not tried the above procedure, but feel free to give it a try if you wish :) best regards Teo Fonrouge
