What kernel version are you running?
What hardware are you using?
eg :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=494114
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=470202
Did this happen just after a kernel update?
Kernel 2.6.18-128 versions are known to give problems on some hardware
platforms, try using an older (2.6.18-92) or a newer kernel (2.6.18-144
or higher available at http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5/)
Tosh,
The kernel is 2.6.18-128.el5
This is on a Biostar motherboard
I installed using CDs 1 through 4; the install screen did not all show up on
my monitor (the right side of the screen was not showing up) and I did not
install all the packages I wanted to install
I do not know how to change just the kernel; please give instructions
might after all not be a kernel issue, but a dependency issue, anyway
first try the following
download the kernel, kernel-devel and kernel-headers (32bit or 64bit) on
a computer and put it on a usb stick, I recommend 2.6.18-150.el5
Boot from the rescue cd or boot cd 1 and type "linux rescue" when boot:
comes on your screen, you will now enter the rescue mode of rhel5
installer, you will be prompted for your keyboard and if you want to
enable networking, configure as per your needs, then it will look for
your installation and change to a command line
at this point attach the usb stick and do the following commands:
chroot /mnt/sysimage
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.18-150.el5.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.18-150.el5.x86_64.rpm
rpm -iUvh kernel-headers-2.6.18-150.el5.x86_64.rpm
yum update
(this will only work if you have enabled networking in the previous step
AND you have a working network connection)
reboot
now you will reboot your system, remove all cd and usb and hope that it
loads
