VA's current kernel includes VM-global and serial-5.05 (and lots of other stuff :-)). The only problem we had with serial-5.05 was its 2.2/2.4 compatibility code getting confused because 2.2.18 has more of 2.4's init macros available.

According to Matthias Andree: I have a vanilla 2.2.18 that I patch Andrea Arcangeli's VM-global-7 patch (for 2.2.18pre25) on top, as well as I²C 2.5.4, the current --12-09 IDE.2.2.18 patch and ReiserFS 3.5.28. So far, so good. If I now patch serial 5.05 on top of that, the kernel itself detects devices, but does nothing if it's to boot /sbin/init. ctrl-alt-del and Magic SysRq are both functional and can reboot the machine.
