Attached is my trace and lilo.conf. I am trying to get kernel -12 version
loaded. I did a network "upgrade" and it downloaded the -12 kernel version. This
is the exact error message displayed:

I don't even have the -9 version in my /boot dir anymore. Thoughts?
Thanks,

PS. Somewhere I heard that there was a size limit for the /boot dir (16Mb). Is
