Contrary to what you were told, *always* install a new kernel... never upgrade it. Use -ivh, don't ever use -Uvh. That will give you a kernel to fall back on if there is a problem with the new one. Having said that, this is a good source for doing kernel updates of any kind: http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/kernelupdate.php -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ "lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import" {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD}
