Hi-- I lost vmlinuz's for kernels in /usr/src/ so I can't boot the previous 5.7.11 kernel hence no VMware.
Can I create the files necessary to boot the /usr/src/linux-5.7.11-1?
Normally, mkinitrd does it, but the "kernels in /usr/src/" part has me baffled. You will have to explain what does that mean.

Thanks Carlos- I mean there is a file /usr/src/linux-5.7.11-1 with others that have kernel names from recent updates. So, can that file be used to generate a bootable entry in grub2?
No, vmlinuz is not generated from that. I thought you might have created your own kernel. Just run "mkinitrd" in a terminal as root. This has no relation at all to vmwware. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
