Ultimate Newbie Question
 

Ok, so I keep reading :study: on how I should go to /etc/grub.conf to edit grub so I can remove my old kernel as a boot choice. My question is, how exactly do I go to /etc/grub.conf I type is in terminal and all i get is permission denied, and I am logged in as root. :scratch: Can anyone help this this? Thanks in advance.

TC a.k.a. Ultimate :newbie:

try these steps
1. type 'whoami'. make sure your root.
2. type 'cd /etc'
3. type 'pico grub.conf'
4. edit it.

if you get error, tell me on which step.

that was great. I now see both kernels in grub. Now, to remove the old should I just delete its section from this terminal windo or put # infront of title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-27.8.0debug) - or infront of each line in that section. Thank you very much for the help.

You can do either, the # sign is suggested to be used first, just to test.
Then if there is a problem you can simply uncomment them (remove the #) and be back to a working setup.
If there isn't a problem, after a while you can safely remove the lines following the comments if you so choose.

Cool

Everything is working great, my sound works and that was the whole reason for this endevour. Thanks for all the help
