It's time to upgrade my Debian box from Kernel 2.2.20-idepci. However, I

then I got a kernel panic because it couldn't mount the root filesystem.

I was reading in my SQL book about optimizing queries, and it came to me
that MySQL date fields may not be the way to go.
For example, if you have "year(date_col) = 1990" in your where clause, MySQL
will not use an index because it must calculate year for each date_col
value.
