There *is* a SKAS patch for x86_64 hosts (not yet released for 2.6.14, but it's already adapted), but it only works in some cases. Slackware root_fs's, for instance. Ah, you're the one who saw that. News: Antoine Martin uses even newer Slackware root_fs, up to 10.0/10.1 IIRC. > I plan on building a test suite with startup scripts and root_fs's for a > couple of different architectures for the gentoo root, an experimental > root_fs for seeing if I can work around the TLS problems somehow, and the > functional old slackware root for reference. > A test matrix something like: If you don't patch the host, you can't test skas3 > tt skas0 skas3 > i386 > i686 > athlonxp > experimental a-xp > old slackware root -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
