Re: Is a kernel upgrade necessary ?

[David Whelan]

I've just done almost exactly the same thing as you are contemplating 
(upgraded to sarge, then from 2.2.20idepci to 2.6.8-3-386). I used 
aptitude to install the new kernel and seemingly everything went well, 
but when I rebooted, it gets to the boot message "Starting periodic 
command scheduler: cron" and then it hangs. I am trying to figure this 
one out right now. 
    
As an update to my problem: I have figured out (by removing S20pcmcia 
from /etc/rc2.d) that it is the pcmcia daemon that is causing the boot 
process to hang. I'm going to keep digging because this is teaching me a 
lot about debian.
Regards
Dave.
