Erik Hendriks handles the "interfaces downed" issue by making all interfaces modules that get unloaded before booting the new kernel. He also tells me that in 2.5 there won't be static drivers (!). Everything will be a module. So we will be moving to Linux+ramdisk soon whether we want to or not. ron
