|| From seth vidal: || || So I'm confused. || || I thought the whole point of having a config file was so people could || change the configuration of the program on their own. Which is what I certainly do. I was just voicing that the desire to exclude kernels was echoed by me as well, and not that they should necessarily be done by default. || what the justification for kernels being exlcuded? I've had kernel upgrades go awry on me before. It's the same, irrational fear as upgrading BIOSes on machines. || kernels are handled correctly by yum. I've checked it countless || times. Even if your lilo.conf/grub.conf is screwed up it will || still update correctly and it NEVER updates kernels it just || installs new ones. I've certainly used yum for kernels as well, but I tend to avoid it on live, remote machines that I can't easily fix if something goes wrong. For new builds or personal builds, I'm all for yum keeping me on the cutting/leading/bleeding edge. -- Wayne
