...for some subset of "anyone." A lot of people resisted moving to the linux 2.6 kernel because it is slower and larger than the 2.4 kernel. A lot of embedded devices (and probably some servers and desktops) are still running 2.4 kernels. I would not conclude that 2.6 isn't beneficial to anyone. Maybe the destination turns into a failure, but half the fun is planning the trip. gvb ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ U-Boot-Users mailing list U-Boot-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/u-boot-users
