Kernel Upgrade
It appears I have made the Cardinal mistake of executing an rpm -U kermel.2.4.12 on my RedHat 7.1 kernel 2.4.2 system.
The system boots ok but does not load modules and modprobe says modules are not loaded, despmod complains of missing links.
I tried ln -s /lib/modules/2.4.12 /lib/modules/2.4.2 as all the modules appear to be in the new directory.
I cannot access my cd drive nor my msdos drives!
Is there any way out of this mess other than a re-install?
