It is easy to keep a backup kernel. I do it since the initial installation.
1. Go to the boot directory****************************
#cd /boot
2. Find out the name of the running kernel*************
#uname -r
copy the number and pasted over the number in the example below.
3. make backup copy of your kernel and System.map******
#cp vmlinuz-2.6.22.13-0.3-default vmlinuz-2.6.22.13-0.3-bak #cp System.map-2.6.22.13-0.3-default System.map-2.6.22.13-0.3-bak #cp -r /lib/modules/2.6.22.13-0.3-default /lib/modules/2.6.22.13-0.3-bak
... This is not enough, you need to copy also the entire /lib/modules/{kernel-version} tree, which is where the modules are kept. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
