No. I means that sysinstall turns on softupdates for all non-root, non-swap partitions by default. Under 4.4 you had to tell sysinstall that you wanted softupdates (with the 'S' command). There is no change to the functionality in 4.5, only to the default operation. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
