OK, I but often I like to keep the older kernel versions and grup entries
around for a while to test the differences in the various kernels. Won't
this approach overwrite entries in grub or does it just make another
entry? Some of my grub.conf files get pretty ugly...


I often add hacks/patches or custom firmware to the kernel sources
and derivatives for other targets and testing.


All in all, I'm going to try this approach, as the number of 2.6
systems I'm managing is growing, and routine kernel upgrades
need to streamlined for systems I'm not developing on.....

thanks,

James
