Hello,

Slackware Linux 1.2.13 to the highest stable version.  Can anyone advise
me on how to get this new kernel and the steps on how to complete the
upgrade?

Please pardon my intrusion if im not on the right news group.

I have upgraded from slackware 3.0 (1.2.13) so if ya got any questions
mail me ... not a big problem ... read the changes document and figure out
the packages you use/need and upgrade those

1. Q: How do I get from the latest stable kernel version to the latest prepatch version ?

Thanks.
It just struck me odd that the latest is 2.4.2 while the prepatches were
2.4.3 so I figured there must be something I missed in between (my logic
told me that a 2.4.3 patch would be against a 2.4.3 something ;-).

BTW, I haven't seen any announcements from Linus in this mailing list
regarding new versions, just the updates on the web site and Alan's release
notes saying he's merging with 2.4.3xx. Are those announcements being posted
somewhere else now ?
