I've had this happen twice. Both times, I aborted the install of course). The first time was when I wanted to install AbiWord, the second time was just a few minutes ago, when I was going to install flpsed so that I could complete an important form to email back to my squadron. When I did the apt-get install, one of the messages that came up was this:
The following packages will be REMOVED: kernel-image-2.6.9-1-k7 Erm, that is the only kernel installed on my system. Wouldn't my system be unbootable if that was removed? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
