I'm interested in looking at the 2.5 kernel, but I'm not an experienced kernel 
hacker, and I'm having a hard time getting everything set up properly.  I 
understand from an article in the Linux Journal 
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6740 that things may be stable 
enough for some testing by someone like those of us who do cooker testing.

The problem is getting everything set up and working.  I hear we already have 
the proper module init tools if we urpmi module-init-tools from a posting 
after the Linux Journal article by Chmouel.  I can get past the initial 
message when the 2.5.65 kernel boots, then my drive light blinks for some 
time, but nothing else ever comes up on the console.

Like I said, off topic for the cooker list, and probably showing my lack of 
knowledge.  It may be something someone here can help with though, either 
from the Mandrake crew (when might the 2.5 series appear in the cooker?), or 
from someone else.

I just figured that now (cooker frozen for 9.1, 9.2 about to start) would be a 
good time to ask.
