+          <para>The Linux kernel is updated relatively often, many times due to
+          discoveries of security vulnerabilities.  The latest available
+          2.6.16.x kernel version should be used, unless the errata page says
+          otherwise.  Do not use version 2.6.17 or later kernels due to
+          potential incompatibilites of the bootscripts.</para>
