[expert] Is somebody tried Kernel-2.6.0-test1 ?

Hi,
I tried it today (on a mdk9.0)

Thierry,

   There is  a different kind of initrd file needed for the 2.5.x
kernels and probably for the 2.6.  Although at the moment I can't
remember the rpm name.  Thomas or someone may be able to shed more light
on this.

Isn't it module-init-tools, or something similar? Something in that 
general ballpark, ISTR ...

I think this is what James is thinking of:

At this site is posted the new init stuff for 2.5 kernels that might work for 
2.6pres. This isn't for supermount as the name implies, but you can get the 
supermount patch for 2.4's and I believe some 2.5's by going to the parent 
directory from the mdk-25 page.

Andrey's stuff (the link above) will get you on the way,
but all stuff is not finished yet, as we need updated module-init-tools,
initscripts, and so on...

This same problem is looked on by many people on the Cooker list,
so I guess we will have a 2.6 alternative in 9.2...

But the easiest way for now to build a 2.6 kernel is to build it without
modules, only selecting the parts you really need to be built-in...
