At this point in time it's possible to use the latest 2.3 kernel (2.3.30). If you do really basic stuff, you don't need to worry about updating any programs. Whenever I install slink, this is what I update, and the order I do it in: * ifconfig & friends (download & compile from source) * kernel 2.2.x I haven't run into any problems. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil Brutsche [EMAIL PROTECTED] "There are two things that are infinite; Human stupidity and the universe.
