Yes, that's right. The important thing is that you need to make sure the drivers for your root disk and filesystem (probably "IDE disk" and "ext2", but these could both be other things) are built into the kernel, not built as modules. Just make sure you have a LILO entry around to boot your old kernel if you get stuck. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
