[HPADM] Summary: vmunix.prev

Thanks for all the replies. Yes all I have to do is copy the old / previous kernel as I mentioned in my original message.

It has also been suggested that I remove what I added to the kernel which will re-build it. I had to get the system back up so I need to do this the next time I can schedule a downtime for this system.

Thanks again for all who replied!

Original Message:

After re-compiling the kernel and rebooting I had a panic.

I was able to boot from ISL by doing a `hpux -s /stand/vmunix.prev`

My question is do I just move the /stand/vmunix.prev to /stand/vmunix so next time I re-boot it will use the good kernel? I assume /stand/vmunix.prev is loaded into memory so copying it to /stand/vmunix while the system is up and running will not hurt it.

Thanks,

- Justin
