Dear Srs
I`ve decided for the online upgrading from Fedora 10 to 12.
First i've got a message to delete old kernels to get free space.
At the end, when booting, I've got a big problem:
Error 15: File not found
I noticed that the kernel number refered to those 2 or 3 I've deleted. I thought It shouldn't be a big problem because the new version would put a new kernel.
Could you please guide me through this?
Have I lost the data?

I've already done some attempts but it did not work. See below:
in the /boot I have:
System.map.-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686
config-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686
efi
grub
initramfs-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686.img
lost+found
vmlinuz-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686.img
In the boot/grub I have:
device.map
e2fs_stage1_5
fat_stage1_5
ffs_stage1_5
grub.conf
iso9660_stage1_5
jfs_stage1_5
menu.lst
minix_stage1_5
reiserfs_stage1_5
splash.xpm.gz
stage1
stage2
ufs2_stage1_5
vstafs_stage1_5
xfs_stage1_5
In the grub.conf I have:
first, because of the created swap file:
E325: ATTENTION

(1) Another program may be editing the same file.
If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two
different instances of the same file when making changes.
Quit, or continue with caution.
(2) An edit session for this file crashed.
If this is the case, use ":recover" or "vim -r grub.conf"
to recover the changes (see ":help recovery").
If you did this already, delete the swap file ".grub.conf.swp"
to avoid this message.

If I, desperately try to install the FC12 DVD I will lose the data ?
Is there a way to recover everything before I accept stable install ?
Could you please give a common user and send me the complete directions ?
Thank you in advance!
