We are running 2.4.14 on a PE6400, quad 700/4G in a production environment. It has been stable, VM works well, using ext2 due to problems with the ext3 patch for that particular version of kernel. eepro100 NICs, MegaRAID driver running raid1 and raid5, aic7xxx... If you want to contact me off line, we can compare kernel configs etc. Regards James Bourne > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Tibor Nagy > National Savings and Commercial Bank Ltd (OTP Bank) > H-1051 Budapest Nador u. 16. > Tel: 00 36 1 374 6990 Fax: 00 36 1 374 6981 E-mail: nagyt@otpbank.hu > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ > -- James Bourne, Supervisor Data Centre Operations Mount Royal College, Calgary, AB, CA www.mtroyal.ab.ca ****************************************************************************** This communication is intended for the use of the recipient to which it is addressed, and may contain confidential, personal, and or privileged information.
