and you do know that you don't have to boot the latest kernel? keep using the one that matches your "VB"
And then it somehow gets updated automagically, and all hell breaks loose. No thanks. The tighter that box is locked down, the better. Aged parents break things...
No, you are right, TW is the wrong one for systems in the hands of other people that can not maintain it themselves and rely on you. Leap is the best choice. Not only because of kernel updates, but many other things that can get updated/upgraded. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
