If the new kernel is already installed but has not yet been booted,
the output returned by something like the following should give you
the confidence to perform a reboot --

[code]
ls -l $(find /lib/modules -name \*.ko | grep -E 'extra|weak')
[/code]

Essentially you will be looking for the symlink(s) from the
weak-updates/ directory of kernel-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5 back to the
module(s) in the extra/ directory of kernel-2.6.18-164.el5 . . .

If you see that, everything should be o.k. for the reboot.

Alan.
