am a new user to Red Hat Linux Enterprise Edition 4.1
I am trying to install a new kernel 2.6.15.6 on my Linux.
 
I have compiled the kernel and copied bzImage to /boot partition.
Also I have modified the grub.conf file
it is listed as
 
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,2)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda6
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda

timeout=5
