There was a space missing after the '..cfg' in the kernel line. I booted my old kernel, inserted the space in /etc/grub.conf and rebooted into the upgrade to Goddard. The upgrade then worked without me doing anything else. -- Norman Gaywood, Computer Systems Officer University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia ngaywood@xxxxxxxxxx Phone: +61 (0)2 6773 3337 http://mcs.une.edu.au/~norm ; Fax: +61 (0)2 6773 3312 Please avoid sending me Word or Power Point attachments.
