I agree Ron, I would like to select it myself also. However, I kind of thought that when you do apt-get dist-upgrade against security and there is a major kernel security vulnerability reported against the kernel 2.6.18 then you would get upgraded automatically. Thus I would want the linux-image-2.6 virtual package to get installed and then I would be asked to chose the latest kernel to install. and the list should only include the latest secure kernels. Here the list gets to include older vulnerable kernels as well. 1. How to get the apt to install the virtual package linux-image-2.6? 2. Will it then remind me of the new selection of kernels with dist-upgrade? Mitchell -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
