	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.
