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

[elimachi at datacom.com.bo]

Hi list:

Let me see if I comprise.
1.- Installa the new kernel with "rpm -ivh new kernel version"
2.- Create a new boot disk with "mkbootdisk new kernel version"

Is that correct?

Thank you.

- You don't need to modify to grub.conf or lilo.conf file : they are not
  used from you ! 

- But you must to create a new bootfloppy with mkbootdisk.
