what does your 9.1 install tells for "ls -l /boot/vmlinuz*`

My 9.1 is my lowest numbered Linux partition, so it has the job of lilo-booting everything. I install a Linux to use its own partition as lilo boot manager. Since this approach neglects the requirement to also boot other linux partitions (serious oversight by the Mandrake installer, IMHO) I then have to laboriously copy the new lilo stanzas and all the necessary booting stuff to that partition, remove all the symbolic links, and call each component by its full name. That is why there are so many vmlinuzs and no symlinks (you will see I missed two <g>).
