just a guess, cuz I had the same thing happen to me when I updated RH
7.1 to the 2.4.3-12 kernel.

I actually figured out the problem very quickly - a sure sign that I am
starting to learn this thing.

Check your /etc/lilo.conf - it probably still points to the image =
/boot/vmlinuz-oldwhatever instead of /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.0-4GB or whatever
it's supposed to point to - ls -l /boot and you will see which one it's
supposed to boot to.

After you edit /etc/lilo.conf then execute lilo to finish it.
