My / partition has limited freespace, so I didn't want to add new or unnecessary stuff. I depend on smbfs, so didn't want a new kernel to force me to install sources, recompile, and run out of freespace on /. So I:
1-opened YaST Control Center 2-clicked Software Management 3-selected package groups 4-clicked zzz All 5-scrolled down to kernel-default 6-right clicked 7-selected Protected 8-selected kerry 9-right clicked 10-selected all in this list 11-selected update if newer version available 12-clicked Accept YaST then proceeded to update what needed updateing, and to delete 2.6.18.2-34 and install the latest kernel version. I am not happy about this. Did I get the procedure wrong, or is protection from kernel upgrade broken? One of the nicest things about Mandriva is urpmi won't replace any kernel automatically. Kernel upgrade there only happens by explicit request. I wish SUSE/YaST was as intelligent. Then I could update whenever updates were available instead of putting it off for months at a time. -- "Respect everyone." I Peter 2:17 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
