Debian is not picky about the kernel it runs. If you want to do the upgrade "in-place" you can do it all without an upgrade of the kernel- assuming you want to keep with the 2.2.20 or 2.4.18. I suggest after upgradeing the OS, that you install a new 2.4.x kernel (2.4.27 seems to work nicely so far) and reboot when you have the chance. If you want to go to a 2.6.x kernel, there shouldnt be any hitches- though I have not done an upgrade from woody w/2.4.x to sarge w/2.6.x. Jay -- Jay Kline http://www.slushpupie.com/
