My cluster is fairly new, and I just upgraded from RedHat 7.2 to Woody on it :). I certainly don't plan on using 2.2 kernels for anything. (BTW, my name showed up in the bug report, but I don't know anything about the bug. I just suggested some things to try.) 2.6 will be released soon, so 2.4 will shortly be relegated to the position 2.2 is in now. (And people will stop trying to push new stuff into it, since they can do that with 2.6, which should further improve stability.) -- #define X(x,y) x##y Peter Cordes ; e-mail: X(peter@cor , des.ca) "The gods confound the man who first found out how to distinguish the hours!
