Hi,
The following patch fixes in 2.4(-ac*) :
- endiannes problems with BSD/SOLARIS disklabel (in msdos a partition)
and OSF partition support on big-endian mashines,
- SOLARIS disklabel support on 64-bit machines (it was silently assumed
in the on-disk structures that "long" is 32 bit...)
...compared to 2.2.18pre19.
I use the IDE patch for my CMD648 card, and also 0.90 RAID.
What I have now (2.2.19pre6aa1+ide-1221):

these distros is the same kernel used to boot the installed OS, right?
