If you don't have a backup, you might be able to mount the virtual disk from another Linux installation and modify the menu.lst file, but it's probably easier to just start over. Note: these instructions are over three years old, so I have no idea if they would apply to current distributions of CentOS! Abede, use the backup or Undo disks from step 4 to go back a couple steps.

I followed your guideline in the Setting Up CentOS under Virtual Server section. At step 6 I added the clocksource=pit nosmp noapic nolapic in the same line at the end of / in the "kernel" line. After that I did a reboot and now the system won't boot saying "kernel panic not syncing". How can I recover the system? Dear,

I am using VirtualBox (free remember) and indeed changed the kernel on the grub.conf by adding divide=10 (this also reduces the cpu load which when Centos runs under VB climbs to 100% very easily and my notebook is a 1.6GHZ Dell D600). Was able to do full upgrades, use Webmin and almost anything else. Did not start actual calls though. Using MagicJack too. Cheers, Easy Hi Mark,
