Hi, ----- SUsE 8.2 Pro, Grub bootloader, ----- I did a mistake after installing yesterday's kernel update and need help. I was confused about the warning message "please execute /sbin/lilo after installing the update kernel and prior to rebooting". I let yast handle the update (as I always do) and (I think) everything was OK after the update. My mistake: After the update I found som *.old files, and did rm *.old (stupid me) on all of them. hd-boot: "Kernel requires old insmod, but couldn't run insmod.old: No such file or directory. Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on on 21:02" With CD-boot I can reach runlevel 5 and login in textmode, but with no network connections. rpm -q k_deflt: "k_deflt is not installed" uname -r: "2.4.20-4GB" What to do? /Jari, Stockholm Newbie in progress
