I believe this is right:
# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst # Modified by YaST2. Last modification on Fri Sep 15 13:11:18 EDT 2006 color white/blue black/light-gray default 0 So this means the entry auto chosen is the first one timeout 8 gfxmenu (hd0,1)/boot/message
###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux### title SUSE Linux 10.1 root (hd0,1) kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2 vga=0x314 resume=/dev/hda1 splash=silent showopts initrd /boot/initrd This all looks correct. So, it is not your menu.lst, and if it tries to boot, it is not grub. Your kernel images look fine in boot. That comes down to a possibility

Try rpm -V kernel-default, and/or ls -R /lib/modules/2.6.16.21-0.21-default/ which will be long, to long to transcribe to a different computer. If the first comes back clean, transcribe that one, if the second is short, then that one. If the first comes back clean, your kernel (according to rpm) is OK. If the second is long, it confirms what rpm is saying. If your kernel tree looks good, your machine should be working. BTW, how are you booting to get this info from your system? I am still confused by the uname -r output compared to ls /lib/modules. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871
