yep, apt-get from fedora.us won't upgrade the kernel. you should do: apt-get install kernel#2.4.20-31.9 or kernel-smp, kernel-bigmem, etc. it won't make the new kernel the default either. edit your boot loader config files to make that happen. -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
