Use whatever package management tool you normally use. If you are running Etch then you will have installed non-etch kernels (e.g. 2.6.22-2-686, 2.6.22-3-686 which are not Etch). Ensure that you keep your current kernel and the last one that ran well. I suppose that if you are using Xen then you need a xen kernel. If you need vserver... etc. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
