Then I tried Michael's script. At first, I received
complaints
about "-V" not a valid option for sort. Thought he might
be
trying to do a unique sort, so changed the -V to -u and ran
it
again. Still no
luck.

<br />>
So the machine won't reboot on its own. I've got to
manually
select the oldest kernel to get it to
boot.
<br />>
<br />>
Anyone know a fix for this issue? This isn't the Scientific
Linux
most people with this problem was running - this is Centos.
So
I'm at a loss, but need to fix
it.

What about a lower case -v

<br />
<br />Thanks for the suggestion Ken.
<br />
<br />But the MAN page on "sort" doesn't show a lower-case "v" switch. I still tried it mind you, but got the same error as the capital "V" - "invalid option".
