I guess I missed that part in the release notes... I re-read the whole thing anew just now. There is no concrete statement that 2.4 will never ever run on x86_64. The sentence "For the AMD64 architecture only a 2.6 kernel is available" could be interpreted as "we only build the 2.6 kernel but, hey, here's the code for an earlier one too". I also read that chapter 4 about moving up from a 2.4 to a 2.6 kernel and it doesn't seem as if one couldn't go the other way round either. Anyway, if it weren't for this wretched sata controller thing, I would've gone straight for a 2.6 kernel. BTW the bug report was "automagically" raised to 'serious' status by reportbug (no builds of kernel-image-2.4.27 could be found -- obviously -- so it thought it was something more than what it actually was). Oh well... Back to 2.6, then. Sorry for the noise. \n\n -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Nikos "Nikolai" Ntarmos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> iD8DBQFDMbX9m6J1ac+VFgoRAmKuAKCT+ZAypHQrOOBBsCVUW/SuIU3ZBACePK9t 3mTDtXozh67uJJMs36vzjik= =nEj6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
