apt-get always asks you before overwriting a /etc file. Just select 'no' (the default, iirc) and it will leave the /etc settings untouched. (It will do this for each /etc/ file separately, so you can clobber some and not others.) Also, I believe apt-get makes backups of /etc files you tell it to overwrite (someone correct me if i'm wrong?) > 2) Will the kernel be replaced?
