"just as painful?" Do you mean the error or that "Joe Fedora
Developer"
does not know enough to press a key and select the other kernel to boot? I
have often wondered why Fedora chooses to hide the other kernel. Maybe
"Aunt Tillie", with a little help, could see that 'kernel A' does not
work. Hmm... so maybe I should try 'kernel B'.
The first thing I do after installing Fedora is remove the "hiddenmenu"
line in /etc/grub.conf... why _is_ that the default, anyway??
