Thanks Mike.
The test went perfectly, but when I ran it I got an error about
a problem regenerating lilo.conf.
I edited lilo.conf, ran /sbin/lilo, and rebooted to the new kernel.
It works great.  I have no explanation, but my apps are launching
WAY faster.
Somethin' musta been broke, because I don't think a kernel upgrade
can make that happen, can it?

Thanks again

Edmund
