Hello,
I'm quoting myself here, maybe is helpfull to somebody.
My workaround was:
1) Boot from the RH 6.2 CD using 'linux rescue'
2) Mount the HD:
$ mkdir /tmp/hda5
$ mount /dev/hda5 /tmp/hda5
$ chroot /tmp/hda5 <-- Change the root directory to my HD
$ mount /dev/hda6 /usr
$ mount /dev/hda7 /home
At this point I'm exactly like booting from the HD (the directories /, /usr
and /home are at their respectives mounting points.)
3) Force install the old kernel (first I moved to the directory where this
rpm is located):
$ rpm -ivh --force kernel-2.2.14-5.0.i586.rpm
4) Change lilo.conf to boot using this kernel:
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0
label=linux
read-only
root=/dev/hda5
5) Run /sbin/lilo -v
6) Reboot with this new installed old kernel.
Have fun!
