Greetings,
With all the traffic on the list about kernels, I thought this might be
interesting.
I found an article in the Linux Gazette in which the author
states that the common belief that a linux install requires a
kernel compile scares newbies enough so that many do not try linux
for this reason alone.
He states that the popular dists ship adequate kernels and the desire to
recompile for speed is useless. Since modern pc's ship with 32MB or more
Ram, modularizing is meaningless, he adds.
Of course, the kernel recompile is scary the first time, but after that, I
find it FUN!
Take a look at this before you jump on me! :-)
