I realize that this sounds simple, but I haven't managed to do it. Here is to situation. I have a new kernel that won;t boot. I have the old (working) kernel in kernel.working. I can boot by typing kernel.working at the boot prompt. Once I do that i want to put the old working kernel back in place as /kernel. Everything I try fails(cp mv chmod). /kernel -s mode 555, why can't I chmod it and overwrite it with the good kernel? How do I acomplish this? -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy! Pay no attention to that cliff ahead...
