Hi Thanks all. Much appreciated.

For future reference in the archives I did the following...

rpm -qa | grep kernel
yum erase kernel-2.6.XXXXXX
then rebooted. All clean and nice.

People always ask me why do I run Linux instead of Windows as there is no support. I always say there huge support for Linux. And I don't have to pay for a support call when things break.

This timely help is proof again of the great support that the Linux community gives.
Thanks again
Ben

Hi all,

Running centos 6.x

After an update and reboot, the system hangs during startup mid way
loading services...

If I reboot again and get to grub I can select the previous kernel and
then it all boots correctly.

What do I edit to make the previous kernel the default kernel upon bootup?
Actually that is ubuntu/grub 2

Either set default number (0..1..2..) or edit and make the desired entry the 
first in the list. File is /boot/grub.lst
