Upgrading to kernel 2.6.35

[naturlight]

Hello, i did this to try the new kernel with KSM support

aptitude update
aptitude safe-upgrade
aptitude install proxmox-ve-2.6.35

And i reboot.

After reboot : i already have 2.6.32-4-pve #1 SMP Tue Mar 29 09:08:37 CEST 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

So i tried to find /boot/grub/menu.lst to check if the new kernel is ok but i don't file this file ..

root@vd0:~# find / -name menu.lst
Return nothing ..

root@vd0:/boot/grub# dir

grub initrd.img-2.6.35-1-pve vmlinuz-2.6.32-4-pve

I see (i thing) a little bug :

Any idea to solve this ?

Hi,
you don't have an standard installation. So the install failed to switch to the right kernel...

edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg - there should be the entry which you are looking for.

Hi,
that's ok - pveversion shows all installed pve-kernels and the active one. If you don't want to switch back, you can remove the other kernels.
