Funny, they couldn't figure out the old system (Score 2, Interesting)

That's funny. I ran a SLES shop for 3 years and for the entire time, I had a request in to Novell to explain the minor numbering for their kernels in an attempt to keep EMC happy with updates. They put it off saying that they were trying to find a Linux Engineer there to explain. For 3 years!! I do not miss Novell. Not one bit.
