Re: Kernel update advisory text to approve...

["Peter M. Abraham" <peter abraham dynamicnet net>]

Greetings Jesse:

From Progeny:

        "The most recent kernel security advisory (TSSA-2004:6552-01)
        contains a bug that may cause some customers machines appear
        to hang during the boot process while trying to load the loopback
        device or experience problems using netstat.  While we have a
        very thorough QA process, especially for something as important
        as the kernel, sometimes a bug will slip through. We have been
        working with the customers who have this problem to replicate
        it on our own machines and hope to have a fix shortly."

Thank you.
