Isn't this the whole purpose for Cooker? I use cooker on my "production" machine, knowing all along that it shouldn't be considered stable. It seems like you're advocating yet another unstable branch for Mandrake Linux? The only reason I could see that there would be a need for it is if you think that there should be three branches - "stable", "kinda stable", "experimental". The simplest solution for your problem would probably be just to use Mandrake kernel (and otherwise) rpms, and stay away from Cooker rpms. -Brian
