It may sound funny, but I really saw some Linux guys talking about what would be necessary to replace a kernel 'on the fly'. Not that it does make lots of sence or is extraordinary usefull, but to some of them uptime is all that matters... Cheers, Rocco. msg26502/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

begin quoting what Rocco Rutte said on Mon, Apr 01, 2002 at 11:20:32PM +0200: It may sound funny, but I really saw some Linux guys talking about what would be necessary to replace a kernel 'on the fly'. Not that it does make lots of sence or is extraordinary usefull, but to some of them uptime is all that matters... It'd be easier to just make /proc/uptime writable... (Yes, I'm aware that requires a code change, not just chmod. Every time I say this I get some idiot pointing this out to me, like I didn't know it.) msg26504/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

It also forced a reboot, too, but I thought it was a neat trick. I don't care about uptime per se, but keeping my processes' state would be valuable to me, personally, and could be really quite nice for servers. It's an interesting lateral approach to the checkpointing problem. (Or maybe it *is* the checkpointing problem... I don't know the details of what you're describing, but it could go either way, I suppose.) -- -D.[EMAIL PROTECTED]NSITUniversity of Chicago
