Vanilla can do, however -bs has one little additional feature (mconsole-exec) and contains all bug fixes written after the release (only few important ones go to -stable, they're very restrictive and some -bs patches don't fix critical "regressions"/crashes). In fact, most times 2.6.n-bs is entirely merged in 2.6.(n+1). > Thanks, > Daniel -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
