Just curious about kernel requirements after the upgrade. I've been running the 2.6.9-11.106.unsupported kernel for some time. Now I see that the base kernel is up to 2.6.9-22.EL.
Are there any plans to upgrade the unsupported kernel? Should I be using the newer kernel after the upgrade? Does it make any difference?
Not trying to be pushy; just looking for information.
Thanks for all the good work, and tons of it.

Yes - I am working on it today :)

Maybe - If you did not exclude the kernel from [base] and [updates] per the instructions here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.2/centosplus/Readme.txt
Then yes, you will have the newer kernel ... that is not a centosplus kernel.

Maybe - If you needed something in the CentOS Plus kernel (ntfs, reiserfs, xfs, video4linux, appletalk, etc.) then that is probably no longer functioning.

You're welcome :)
