To the best of my knowledge, the majority of the commercial distros have
specific patches applied to the kernel for various reasons or other.
Perfect example is a feature I found while compiling a 2.4.2 kernel for my
SuSE server last night. It's an option that I don't ever recall seeing in
any of the kernels, that stores the kernel's configuration in the kernel
image itself - at a cost of 1-4k of size - so that you can fairly quickly
rebuild a kernel just based on the config that the running kernel has.
Fairly neat, if not much of a use to the LRP/LEAF images. =)
