[rhn-users] How to upgrade the kernel without boot loader installed

[elimachi at datacom.com.bo]

Dear List:


Remember my old question?
OK I installed RH into a second hard disk slave to boot the Linux through 
a boot floppy disk, for that I didn´t  installed any boot loader. I can 
run Linux now without problems.
Now I´d like to upgrade my kernel for security reasons, then I installed 
the rpm kernel with -ivh options but when I reboot my system it boots with 
the old kernel still.
I know that after install the new kernek I have to modify the grug.conf 
file, however I didn´t install GRUB or LILO.

Is there some procedure to update the kernel in this environment?

I´ll appreciate your suggestions.

Thank you.
