how to edit grub.conf to load the latest kernel? CentOS 6.5

Posted on August 24, 2014

Hello

I have a new droplet with kernel 2.6.32-431.1.2.0.1.el6.x86_64 I did the yum update kernel command. Before reboot I need to edit grub.conf.

My grub.conf is now the following:

#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title CentOS (2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=c5f51db1-bfe$
        initrd /boot/initramfs-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.img

What changes do it need to load the latest 2.6.32-431.23.3.el6.x86_64 kernel?

thank you
