2.6.20 to 2.6.21 is not a major version change, it's a minor one, and a |
| 8 |
single step minor change at that. 2.4 to 2.6 is a major change when |

oldconfig should not be used, but I've been using it since 2.6.verylow |
| 10 |
and the only time it caused a problem was when the SATA config was moved |
| 11 |
(which oldconfig was never designed to handle). |

.20 to .21 (and then .22) had zero problems with oldconfig. |
