Hi...

	Just a very quick question.  I've currently got 2.2.2-RELEASE installed
on my system in Toronto (I'm in Halifax)...Due to a recently reported problem
where my machine is rebooting on a regular basis (I suspect once an hour), I'm
thinking of upgrading the machine to 2.2-STABLE (RELENG_2_2 via cvsup)...I'm
just downloading the sources now, but am wondering if I'm going to experience
any problems doing this?

	ie. periodically, if I upgrade my 3.0-CURRENT machine at home, there are 
structural changes that require a recompile of various utilities (ps, who, etc).

	Should I expect any similar problems going from 2.2.2-RELEASE -> 2.2-STABLE?
Anything that would prevent my ability to telnet back into the machine after
it is rebooted with the new kernel?

Thanks...
