Yeah, I know that. But basically, if I succeed in installing my new kernel-2.4.18 over my default kernel-2.4.8 of Mandrake 8.1, it would also be called an "upgrade" 'cause I won't use my old kernel anymore. Going back with my problem, anybody knows how to upgrade a newer kernel version using XFS (/usr, /home, /etc, /opt, etc...) and ext2 (/boot and /) filesystems and would you mind to give me your "how-to's"? Thank you in advance. God bless you all... __________________________________ www.edsamail.com
