Does it raise issues to use a potato compiler to compile the kernel for a slink update? I guess the kernel is pretty stand-alone, so it would technically work, but I don't like it due to the boot-strapping issues (i.e., how would a Sun4u user recompile their kernel on a slink box?). -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
