Is it already done? If it's pended, I'll ask it to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] The security support for 2.2 series was finished,
we have no reason to support 2.2 kernel.
Note that the current status of the support kernel versions are:
amd64 2.6.0
i386(i686) 2.6.0
i386(amd64) 2.6.0
*(nptl) 2.6.0
ppc64 2.6.0
s390x 2.4.1
sparc64 2.4.18
sparcv9 2.4.18
sparcv9b 2.4.18
others 2.2.0
They'll be changed to:
i386(i486) 2.4.1
powerpc 2.4.1 (?)
BTW, note that some architectures like m68k could not compile the
recent glibc with kernel 2.4.x or 2.6.x.
