Hi Paul,

Please, see below my grub.conf. 
My idea is to unistall the old FC4 kernel
(2.6.11-1.1369_FC4), and keep the new FC4 kernel and
Windows. Could you, let me know what do you think?
Thanks!
Hoffmann
ps: my grub.conf file:

# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making
changes to this file

that

/boot/, eg.
