Mark, thanks again

I just noticed that uname has:

# uname -a
Linux 2.6.9-55.0.9.EL #1 Thu Sep 27 18:10:45 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386
GNU/Linux


whereas in /boot I have numbers past it:


vmlinuz-2.6.9-55.0.9.EL   vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.22.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-89.0.20.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.13.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-89.0.11.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-89.0.7.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.17.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-89.0.15.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-89.0.9.EL

as well as earlier ones:

vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.10.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-55.0.6.EL   vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL   vmlinuz-2.6.9-55.EL       vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.8.EL   vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.0.15.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.5.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.EL       vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.0.1.EL   vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.8.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-55.0.12.EL  vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.0.20.EL
vmlinuz-2.6.9-55.0.2.EL   vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.0.22.EL
