On the other hand what is the scenario if 2.6.25 goes missing in unstable while uml is not in testing yet? ask to push user-mode-linux soonest and update it when linux-2.6 hits unstable which should be soonest. best regards -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

After sometime on sid, I believe we ought to move d-i for it if it looks to be a real option for lenny and try to release a first RC of installer as soon as possible after that.

No, it really would be a waste of time. 2.6.25 is already in testing, so t-p-u is still there as an update path; but no one on the kernel side is really considering 2.6.25 to be an option for lenny, and the sooner we get 2.6.26 into unstable the sooner we can get everything smoothed out for lenny. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
