All options are checked by default (as they should be for your case)
Sorry, I couldn't recognize that they were checked, because it is not a clear check mark in this menu...
Anyway, Uelsk8s, I have to give you many thanks for this excellent Linux lesson and the outstanding support you provided.....now it works...
The problem is solved, case closed. Celebrating VectorLinux Victory.
In my opinion, VL is the best distro for an old Dell Inspiron 2500 Laptop!

BTW:
If I want to remove the *.14 kernel, you said in your previous post, that I should run 'removepkg kernel and removepkg kernel-src'.
Don't I have to define which kernel version I want to remove?
