Maybe it is incomplete; not the /boot image, but the modules, that are many and use quite some space. Youd don't happen to have a nearly full disk, per chance? That happened to me once, the update could not complete. Something there did not update correctly who knows why.
I have plenty of space left. Usage on hda2 is only 26% of 20GB. The larger partition, hda3, is 14.5% of 89.8GB.
Good.
According to the files Joe Morris advised me to check, it looks like modules for both kernels are there somewhere:
# ls /lib/modules 2.6.16.21-0.13-default 2.6.16.21-0.21-default
That's true, they are there, but they might be incomplete. Notice that they are some 1703 files (in my system) plus depmod info - have you checked them all? No? Then reinstall the rpm.
# rpm -qa | grep kernel kernel-default-2.6.16.21-0.21 kernel-docs-2.6.16.13-4
The kernel-docs don't match, but I'm used to seeing out of date docs.
They don't match here either.
Then there is the check you had me run:
Ran uname -r
2.6.16.13-4-default
It seems the system is giving conflicting reports depending on where the info is drawn from.
You would see that number if you were running the rescue system from the CD. If not, and that is what you see on you real system, you have a really hosed update! So, redo it!
As to the re-install you advised, I'm sure that would be fastest, but if proceeding another way will provide useful info for anyone I am willing. I'm sure I would learn from the experience.
Well... as you like. I'll stay listening, but I don't hope much that way. I could be mistaken, of course, but my intuition/experience tells me otherwise. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
