Was the suggestion of three differently-compiled kernels a serious one?
I don't think that it would give me any benefit; one kernel serves quite
nicely for each situation that my laptop finds itself in.
What I was talking about reconfiguring is the network interface and
routing. At home, it resides in a private network. In my office, it
connects to the Rice ``math'' network. Elsewhere on campus, I believe
that I can jack it in and use DHCP to connect to one or more other
networks. (That last hasn't come up, yet. But, it may someday.)
Where would having 3 distinct kernels come in handy, here?
