New kernels do not work.

Please help. PC stuck in grub> prompt.

Getting error when loading updated kernels:

Error 13: invalid or unsupported executable format


Updated kernels do not boot. The kernel that came with the DVD boots
fine. I tried regular kernel and also the PAE kernel (I have 4GB of
RAM).

RAID1 setup on a Intel DP35DP.

00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 82801 SATA RAID
Controller (rev 02)


This works:

grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 ro root=/dev/VG/rootfs rhgb quiet
grub> boot

This does not:
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 ro root=/dev/VG/rootfs rhgb quiet
Error 13: invalid or unsupported executable format
