Exceuse the spamming of the list please. Just a point to point out.
POC Proven.
Maybe add kernel-pae for default. Not to hard to do. Installing one
then the other should have no effect in updateing or going back to
'kernel' should have no problem and just update. Mine updated from RT
back to Mainline but to go back to defacto RT I will have to edit it.
Make any sense?
For others that are saying it want update the boot config then you may
have something wrong somewhere because it should plain out update it.
