I've been using mainline builds for over 6 months and I have to admit Ubuntu devs do have good reasons to patch kernels. Hopefully I'll be able to make a LiveCD spin that boots on non-pae systems and doesn't cause a kitten carnage in process, but I can't test it anyway, so I'd prefer an interested party to do it in collaboration with me or Ivo Nunes (https://launchpad.net/~netherblood). -- Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff
