Bob, The new Evil Empire is not RedHat. That's a mistake many of us have made. Debian will rue the day it got in bed with Corel. I predict Obergruppenfuhrer Cowpland will mount a full court legal press - and soon - to break the GPL. You may be right, but I hope you are wrong. I think old

Expect few to no problems if you upgrade to 2.2.x as soon as possible (SMP support in 2.0.x, which is the default in slink, isn't all that hot). For what it's worth, Corel's web page indicates Corel/Debian Linux ships with 2.2 Kernel. Please see link:

Yet another recommendation for backing up system configuration only. I guess we should be keeping root log files which we use to describe when and what we changed. That way, when we break something, it is easier to backtrack. Use this to tell changed files in the OS and back those up only.
