Same OS two kernels??

The Unknown · 09-05-2007, 02:02 PM

Yesterday night i updated fedora. Then when i restarted my comp, grub had two entries for fedora. One was the new kernel which had no. 20 and another the old one. How to remove the old one. Also if i remove the old one, will something happen to my comp?

grep requires an argument! So "fatal error, try again"!
