huh??? ok, maybe its because I have the cooker rpmdrake and MandrakeUpdate that mine looks for kernel stuff and installs it instead of upgrading it..
in that case... MANDRAKE 8.2 UPDATE WILL NOT UPGRADE YOUR NEW KERNEL,, IT WILL INSTEAD INSTALL IT SEPERATLY SO YOU DON'T CLAG YOUR INSTALL. :-) rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: Charles A Edwards [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 18 December 2001 8:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Warning for newbies, learn from my mistake On Tue, 18 Dec 2001 12:37:57 +0800 "Franki" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If you are using 8.1 instead of earlier versions, then MandrakeUpdate should > automatically install the kernel instead of upgrading it, (which hoses the > old kernel > meaning you can't boot if you have a problem) > > You are a little off. In 8.1 and earlier MandrakeUpdate Will Update the kernel Not Install it. This is why the old kernel then no longer exists. When the new kernel is Installed then both kernels will exist. Charles
