AFAIK 2.4.21 is the newest IBM-blessed source, but the idea is to sync up with the other 2.4 kernels for sarge anyway. For more information, ask the s390 kernel maintainers. > Same question: > kernel-image-2.4.19-r4k-ip22 | 2.4.19-0.020911.8 | testing | mips > kernel-image-2.4.19-r5k-ip22 | 2.4.19-0.020911.8 | testing | mips > kernel-image-2.4.25-r4k-ip22 | 2.4.25-0.040415.1 | testing | mips > kernel-image-2.4.25-r5k-ip22 | 2.4.25-0.040415.1 | testing | mips > > Why should .19 stay there? 2.4.25 is the first version which works again on all supported subarchitectures, and has some known non-fatal flaws. 2.4.26 fixes those. However, 2.4.25 is used for d-i rc1, and will have to stay around until rc1 becomes obsolete. Btw, the same source also builds mipsel kernels, so your list is incomplete. Thiemo
