Don't nuke your old kernel after you build you new one! If your new kernel has problems you'll be left with a crippled system at best. Whether you use grub or lilo, make sure you preserve the option of booting your old kernel. Many people have a number of old kernels lying around in /boot and it's no problem. -Tim -- Tim Wilson Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA Educational technology guy, Linux and OS X fan, Grad. student, Daddy mailto: wilson at visi.com aim: tis270 public key: 0x8C0F8813 _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
