Re: Maybe offline updates aren't a bad idea

Total lockup would have to be a complete kernel crash during the
update.  As others have said, offline would probably not reduce the
risk of this sort of crash.

The updates typically don't add/remove modules and/or otherwise change
the live running kernel components.

On the enterprise side there are some live in-memory patching software
that do update the running kernels code and I have seen those crash
systems.
