Is it possible to upgrade only some things? Like I am upgrading from
a 2.2.1 system and I just want to upgrade the kernel and perhaps one
or two other things, like if the compiler changed. I don't want to
upgrade, say bash or /bin/sh since they haven't changed. Is it possible
to have it do only the modified stuff?
