Oh, now, *that* makes me nervous :)  2500 kilometers away from my baby,
and "waiting for the server to reboot" is what I'm trying to avoid :)

What exactly does this do?  I'm going to read through the Makefile as soon
as I get it upgraded but...I think my more immediate concern is the kernel
and boot blocks...any summary somewhere of what to expect? :)  Binaries
breaking?  config files in /etc going poof?

thanks...
