ISTR that the 9.0 kernels do not, no idea if the ones out for the later releases do or not; hopefully, someone else has the definitive answer. As for the "safety" of upgrading, I prefer clean installs that retain /home, which I keep on a separate partition for exactly that reason. I also back up /etc and certain subdirs of /var before the install, to be able to quickly get the new system's settings and data as I want them. -- Bill Mullen [EMAIL PROTECTED] MA, USA RLU #270075 MDK 8.1 & 9.0 The engineer is neither optimist nor pessimist.
