I have a desktop at home that has RedHat 7.0 installed & RedHat 6.0 transferred (from another HD). After specifying the location of the other kernel image as
image=/chopin/boot/vmlinuz I have no problem switching between rh6 and rh7, with no error messages. I thought I should be able to get around this problem using the same logic on this laptop HD, but I have been out of luck so far. Why is it still complaining about a wrong System.map?
