i don't know of anything that currently does that, but it would be totally sweet to have it! one could create something like a kernel-image-2.4.x "task" that then selects the approprate package to install based on that. just take something like sed -ne 's/^model name.* //p' < /proc/cpuinfo and cross reference it with a list of supported systems for each kernel. --sean
