Also Can you please give inputs regarding..... I have an existing Linux 2.6.11 BSP for an AMD GX processor. What would it take me to port the complete BSP to 2.6.12 kernel? Can I prefer to work on 2.6.11 kernel which makes me get the system up in no time without any changes made? I guess 2.6.11 kernel will work with just a recompilation over 2.6.11.12 kernel. An inquisitive question about Linux kernels versioning ... How do 2.6.(x).1 and 2.6.(x).12 kernels vary?

But note that the 2.6.11 branch is no longer maintained since kernel 2.6.12 was released 5 months ago, and therefore lacks e.g. current security fixes. > Regards, > Mukund Jampala cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
