The first thing you need to do is find out that there is no "Linux ver 6.2"
yet.

If you're worried with not having enough space, try

echo 134217728 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax

I remember someone using that in /etc/rc.d/rc.local to max out the shmem
segment :)

HIH,

Andre

Maybe, maybe not. Red Hat isn't the only distribution with a 6.2 version.

Point taken. But (there's always on of these ;) ) don't forget that
users that think their linux version is x.y (x>2, typically x={6,7}),
usually use RedHat. Not SuSe or Mandrake or Corel, or any other. And you
know why. It's just the MS phenomenon coming all over again ;)

Cheers,

Andre
