There are still 2.4.27 kernel image packages for ia64 in Debian unstable and testing. I'm told having relocatable on breaks 2.4 kernels. So, the sequence we need to follow is to update debian-installer to no longer know about 2.4 kernels, then evict the 2.4 kernel image packages for ia64 from unstable+testing... then I'll be happy to turn relocatable on by default. If someone really wants to run a 2.4 kernel, they can learn how to edit the elilo options, too... ;-) Bdale -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
