I asked a hard technical question, maybe that triggered your way-off-base rant: If the kernel of an Operating system can be replaced while running, then what possible program above the kernel can't be hot-upgraded (i.e. without taking the machine down).
That was the point of my original answer. Two I can think of would be glibc (system libraries) and depending on rpm version, rpm. Glibc because programs may quit running, rpm because of endless dependency cycles. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
