It's happened to me more often than I'd like. Probably once per
release (and I've been using Fedora right from the start).
Lucky me, I can't remember going into such unpleasant situation with
different Linux distros so I thought only one kernel will be enough.
Often it's just drivers that haven't been updated, so
it's just a case
of waiting a couple of days until another yum update fixes it. But I'd
be screwed if I didn't always keep the last known working kernel
around.
Dave..
Maybe having two kernels installed is more comfortable, you'll never
know when something breaks. I must reconsider my initial idea. Thanks a
lot for any thoughts.
