Fedora doesn't really target newbies but let's make sure the details are understood. Removing a kmod and a kernel doesn't make a system unbootable. If you prefer to, you can switchover to using akmod or set yum to preserve more kernels by default or never remove older kernels at all. Look up /etc/yum.conf for that. > > Is this done on purpose in order to chase new users away? Is somebody > working for Ubuntu here? This sort of rhetoric is unnecessary if you are looking for help.
