In theory, maybe. Thing is, I booted the exact same kernel with all |
| 23 |
that mess. So, the kernel was not the issue. If the kernel had got |
| 24 |
corrupt or something, it wouldn't have worked when I removed hal |
| 25 |
either. That much I am sure of. I used that same kernel for a good |
| 26 |
while afterwards. I don't update the kernel to often. |

I could also say that having modules isn't always going to help either. |

I'm sure some poor soul has had to reboot even tho it was a bad module. |
