Daniel,

As you know (though I can also post to this list) ...

I did test this on a real install of i386 and x86_64 for CentOS-3,
including kernel upgrades.

I also did stand up 2 other VMWare VM's (one of each C3 i386 and x86_64)
for detailed testing (group installs, etc.).

It did have WorksForMe(TM) status on those 4 machines.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
