You're welcome. I'm currently on 2.3.38 and its been perfect. However,
it REALLY depends on which parts of the kernel you use. For example,
I'd say that if you use software RAID it may be less stable. Since I
don't use it I have no idea if that statement is true. Do you see what
I mean? For the parts of the kernel that I stress it's been excellent.
