Nope. I saw that message AFTER the upgrade. Great timing on that |

I think I mentioned that my kernel has a little age on it. The latest |
| 55 |
kernel doesn't like my IDE chipset so it wouldn't boot and then there |
| 56 |
were other issues too. |

I'll get my hammer out and beat on this in a day or so. I'm just |
| 59 |
