It seems you must somehow be downloading the set that still uses etch's version of the installer. Although it's not linked to from anywhere. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I installed with the command "expert vga=771" and it booted the 2.6.21 kernel. That may be an oversight.. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Lenny Install CD kernel version.
Hi guys, I noticed that even though 2.6.21 is now in the Lenny repos, the install CD (well, 13 July, at least) still runs 2.6.18. Is there any way to check, before downloading, what version of the kernel the install CD runs? Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
