Help with RH 7.2

>                   Then I upgraded to RH 7.1 and after that 7.2. This ia
> where my problem started. I choose Grub as my loader and I managed to

>                    Now I load linux with a boot floppy, works fine,
> however, I used RHN up2date to upgrade my kernel from 2.4.7-10 to
> 2.4.9-31, all went OK according to the messages. I rebooted, ran uname
> -a and , low and behold my version # is still 2.4.7-10.

>                    Looking at my numerous boot configuration files I see
> that the new kernel is included, but does not boot.

>                    My question is this: How do get my new kernel to
> boot, and all my O/S's to load from the HD, I have win98. win2k and RH
> 7.2. I also need to know how I find out what .conf file my system uses
> to load, I am still booting linux from a floppy, and which .conf files
> can I get rif of, if any.

>                     Any help is greatly appreciated.
