Re: new kernel not installing



     Tom, take a look at vmlinuz in the "/" directory.  Then look
at "/boot/vmlinuz-2.1.125."  See what I mean?  You might try symlinking
from /vmlinuz (after renaming or removing it) to /boot/vmlinuz-2.1.125,
if it's there as my 2.1.132 kernel is.  ...not sure about 2.1.125, but it
might be a good guess.  <g>

     Good luck, and make sure you have the rescue disk to go into a
shell, should you need it.

     Whack me with the rhetorical ruler if I'm wrong, gurus.  :-)
