raphael stranger Registered: 09/06/1999 Posts: 33 Loc: Austria	How can I apply the kernel upgrade from http://www2.empeg.com/upgrades/tools/pppkernel7.upgrade ? I can't find a /vmlinuz, I could replace. UPDATE: How embarrassing ... The Windows upgrader software can do it. -- Raphael Wegmann [email protected] _________________________ -- Raphael Wegmann [email protected]

Unlike PC linux systems, the kernel is not stored on the hard disk - it's stored, compressed, in flash. This means that the kernel can be booting while the hard disks are still spinning up, which gives a faster boot time. We're still working on the boot time, and I've shaved about 1.5 seconds off it (hopefully in the next release). Hugo
