2007-09-12 Thread John Talbut
I have just done another kernel recompile and when I ran update-grub it listed the previous version of the kernel first (thereby making it the default kernel to boot). I give my kernels a version according to the date on which I compiled them, i.e.: vmlinuz-2.6.21-11sep7 vmlinuz-2.6.21-18jul7
