Sorry to interupt you all, but I'm stumped with a problem thats causing us a
lot of grief.
We have a couple of debian etch 64bit installations that are being very
stubborn when it comes to the kernel image. They seem confused as to which
version is installed.
Here are some example outputs... Very grateful for any input into this problem.
