As specific as I can: Go to ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/kernel/v2.0/
Check out the file called Changes which should tell you everything you
will need to upgrade on your machine to use the new kernel.

1. HELP : Kernal Panic when rebooting with new Kernal

I went through the steps to build a new kernal.  I copied the
old kernal to a *.old file and put the new kernal in the /boot
directory.  When I rebooted with lilo I got a kernal panic.
My first idea was to use the boot disk I made when I installed RedHat
4.1 to boot the system and then put the kernal back in place.
I booted from the floppy and typed rescue at the lilo prompt, but
it just went to the installation screens.  Can I save my system
or should I reinstall?
Thanks,
Jim
