[Planetlab-users] Updates to all nodes tomorrow, nodes will reboot

[Aaron Klingaman]

Everything appears to be in good working order regarding the fix explained 
below, so we're going to push this update out tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon 
at 1pm EST. Within 1 hour, all nodes should get this update and reboot to 
activate the new kernel.

Thank you,

Aaron
