Problems With 2 Legacy Packages For Red Hat 9

[John Dalbec <jpdalbec ysu edu>]

Make sure your "kernel" line in grub.conf looks like this:
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-43.9.legacysmp ro root=LABEL=/ apm=power-off 
nosysinfo

Also you probably want to change the commented-out section at the top so that 
its "kernel" line looks like this:
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=LABEL=/ apm=power-off

Each time you upgrade the kernel the postinst runs a program called "grubby" 
that automatically generates a GRUB configuration for the new kernel based on 
the commented-out section.  If you add apm=power-off to that section it will 
automatically be added to each new kernel configuration.
