But I really consider that to be in a different category -- anything that changes the kernel of your OS is a critical upgrade and requires special treatment. A kernel change is one of those things I watch for in my upgrades... I guess my point is that if one is careful and watches what they do, breakage should be rare or better. And certainly, keeping an old kernel around is a good idea. The system doesn't "break", you just get an unusable kernel... nothing to prevent you from falling back to the older one.
