I need a little clairification on this kernel 2.2 thing. If I buy SuSE 6.0 with, presumably kernel 2.0.36, then want to upgrade to 2.2 (whatever), would I have to download each patch from 2.0.37, 38, etc to 2.2, or just one patch, then recompile (a process I've never had the best of luck with). Also, what is in 2.2 that would make me WANT to recompile? Anybody know? Just curious.
Another reason I went for it was filesystem drivers. I can read from my NTFS drives and from my BSD partitions, although I'm leary about writing to the BSD one yet. This is extremely useful to me and has allowed me to move completely to linux. I will only use NT for Visual C++ and training on Lotus Notes and MS Exchange now. -- lunaslide * PGP key->pgpkeys.mit.edu port 11371 * * * * * * In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is * getting caught.
