Agree.  I need some feedback on this issue:

How many people never compile their kernel and why?

There are many good reasons to DO compile your own kernel and very few I
know of not to.  If needed, I am willing to attempt writing a short and
simple description of the process and answer any questions that pop up.

If it were up to me, the only use of the image package should be for
creating boot floppies.  Again, I could expand on it if interest
warrants it.

Happy New Year to you all!


Simon
