2.4 is an option. Boot from CD 5, or type 'bf24' at the boot: prompt of CD 1. (This is documented in chapter 5.2 of the Installation Manual.) Basically, at the time woody was originally being prepared for freeze, 2.4 clearly wasn't ready to be the default. Things changed quite a bit over the duration of the freeze, which was rather longer than we expected, but a major thing like changing the default installation kernel just tends to push a freeze back further. Having it there as an option offered the best of both worlds. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
