Complete!
The problem is is that the first server I built has kernel version 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 on there. This new server currently has that version but the update installed version 2.6.18-128.1.14.el5.
I have not rebooted the server yet so how can I undo that kernel upgrade ?
Thanks
Shawn

Re: How to undo kernel update ia64
I can see that your current kernel was not removed by the update, that means that you have your current and your new kernel installed and you can boot from any of them.
Just ensure that your "default" line in grub.conf points to your current kernel.

Re: How to undo kernel update ia64
This is the first time we have used Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.3 so i am still getting used to the new changes. Can I create one ?

Re: How to undo kernel update ia64
Then, you should have the:
/boot/efi/elilo.conf
That file should list your kernel boot options.

So can I just reboot and then vi this file and put the old kernel back in place ?
