I am currently using 7.3 with kernel 2.4.18 - it works great. In fact this is as stable and tame a combination Ive seen since RTL 1.1 and kernel 2.0.36 under RedHat 5.2.

SuSE 7.0/7.2/7.3/8.0 RH 7.0/7.2/ ( 7.3 was reported to be ok - never tried it ) Mandrake 8.2 should be no problem Slcakware 8.0 also works ok For a step-by-step install guide for SuSE 8.0 check out ftp://ftp.fsmlabs.at/pub/rtlinux/contrib/rt_install.txt , this is for installing 2.4.18 rtl3.1 based on ripoll's patch on UP. hofrat -- [rtl] --- To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe rtl" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR echo "unsubscribe rtl <Your_email>" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- For more information on Real-Time Linux see: http://www.rtlinux.org/ -- [rtl] --- To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe rtl" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR echo "unsubscribe rtl <Your_email>" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- For more information on Real-Time Linux see: http://www.rtlinux.org/
