howdy all, i've got an olde mandrake linux box. i like it a lot. it's been patched so heavily it no longer looks like a it's original mandrake 8.0 image at all. the one thing i haven't upgraded is the kernel. anyone have much experience in this? any insight? starting points? i've looked around to RTFM, albeit briefly, and have found a few sites and email lists. it all seems pretty easy - if you knew exaclty what to do already. i'd love some suggestions and/or things to watch out for. merci, colin. ps - i'd think it's pretty easy to just compile a kernel. but what about all the things that get compiled in? how do i make sure i've built a kernel that is the "same" as the one i've got, just upgraded. _______________________________________________ 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
