Re: [PLUG] webhosting question

Does that kernel "package" behavior still work if the kernel has been
customized and compiled by the user? Is that feature unique to debian?
(After reading this , for the first time since my initial experience
with Linux many years ago, which was trying to install Debian from
floppy disks, I thought for a second that maybe I should switch to Debian.)

Debian allows you to treat your kernel as a package, so installing,
removing, patching, can all be done as easily as managing other
packages. It's not 'out of the box' in the sense that it's by default,
but it's close enough, in that you can deal with kernel patches very
easily, and back out of them just as easily.
