New subject: [SLE] boot grub problem [SOLVED] FW: [suse-security-announce] Re: SUSE Security Announcement: various kernel problems (SUSE-SA:2004:044)

      The symlink appears to be:

/boot/vmlinuz -> /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-24.5-default (or whatever version
you're using) Once you're chroot'ed into your regular drive, just linking
those might fix it.

In case you're not sure how to make a symlink, it'd be:

cd /boot
link -s vmlinuz-2.6.8-24.5-default vmlinuz

(reboot)

The good rpms are under ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/9.2/rpm/i586/

Thanks, you helped me on the way.
I did this to get it all working:
Boot the rescue cd, mount my partition.
Cd'ed to it, and made links as follows 
 ln -s vmlinuz-2.6.8-24.8-default vmlinuz
 ln -s initrd-2.6.8-24.8-default initrd

As for as I can see, everything is fine now.
