Not sure about the kernel bit, but you can choose not to run lilo or reformat partitions. I'd imagine that you could move /lib/modules to /lib/modules.orig, and that way, if it tries to overwrite them, you can just move 'em back. -- monique -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
