Hello,

I removed all other kernels before upgrading to a broken kernel so now can't boot.

How can I install another kernel?


I've tried the command prompt from rescue mode on the dvd but the commands seem limited and I don't really know which to use.

I managed to mount the drive and chroot it but that's about it.


I need to either run urpmi or rpm and get the kernel off a cdr or the install dvd or something. is rescue mode loaded to ram or something so I can temporarily load another disc?


Can you help?



version: 2009.0

Were I you, I'd boot the Mandriva One with the same version as your broken install (2009.0?), and then set up easy-urpmi.
You mount your installed partitions, for example under /mnt/broken. Using rpmdrake or urpmq, you look for the kernel packages you want to install, and you install these using:
