For no good reasons at all ;) I often upgrade kernels. Some mkinitrd
and all the proper links in /boot and edit and run lilo. Some don't.
IIRC, -12mdk did, but -11mdk didn't for example. You got lucky ;>
Lurking on the cooker list, I can say they're still ironing out some
substantial bugs. Current is -20mdk, but 2.4.8-22mdk is already in the
works.
I usually wait till at least -10mdk in a cooker kernel series. Then
start trying ready mades. If the precompiled is successfull, then I d/l
the source and headers for it. Supermount is back as of 2.4.8-18mdk,
but not yet ready for prime time.
