I think that maybe he refers to the fact that, for example, you may
have formatted your ext2 partitions so they are incompatible with 2.0.x
kernels. Or to the lot of programs (iptables and related, for example) that
only work with 2.4.x.
But anyway, I agree with the poster. I think there are things that are
easier to do upgrading to 2.4.x, and trying to do them with 2.2.x may be much
worse due to the mess it would be to keep things compatible. My opinion,
anyway.

Have you tried any *BSD? I would prefer any Debian to them if I had to
seriously take charge of one :-) (but again, that's only my opinion; and I'm
not much knowledgeable in BSD systems anyway)
