New stable kernel update to try out, fixing whole load of CVE’s.
Seems alright so far…

Have had a USB disk become sdb, instead of 2nd hard disk. I did have slight glitch about the way I installed the patch, as I had kernel-vanilla installed as well as kernel-desktop and a conflict with the patch because without a fallback kernel (meaning I spot upgraded desktop kernel first), I didn’t want to upgrade everything at once.
Anybody else have disk device name changes, having a USB mass storage attached?
