There is little danger that the system won't boot any longer - the old kernel stays there. Note (you did, this is for the benefit of "some people on this list" only) that I merely asked if it was feasible in one case out of Shachar's two: the one that does not involve an enterprize-class server. Glibc is trickier, as I mentioned in a followup to myself. Don't try that at work... -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
