Thanks for your comments.              Are you talking about the "K", "O", "R", "P" question that I've seen? I       don't get that every time--perhaps only when the kernel is updated?.       Anyway, it is a bothersome question. I always choose "O". I don't think       I want to wade through all of them--which is an option--I don't remember       which.              So far the process I described has worked for me, but then I've only been       updating/upgrading regularly for a few months now. I'll holler, if I       have trouble. It's nice to know there is help here in this Usenet group.              I must say, though, that currently I'm happy, My tools make it easy, and       as a result I'm able to update/upgrade often.              This is in contrast to what I did before. I was bad. I often went       several years between, because the way I applied my system tweaks made it       difficult. But no more! I hope I'm not naive.              -Joe              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
