And who compiles and installes the kernel?
Wasn't it -- root?
Ok, I guess I was asking for that one. :(
How about... On an OS that has a "protected store", even root isn't allowed to install a kernel. The only people who can install kernels are the people who have the firmware passwords for the machines? Will that work?
