Check the information at: http://www.kernel.org/signature.html for how to go about this. Use ftp(1) or wget(1) to do the downloads. Do _not_ try to get the files using any web browser, such as Netscape, because they are known to mangle files that they don't understand. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- + -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Tommy Reynolds | mailto: Red Hat, Inc., Embedded Development Services | Phone: +1.256.704.9286 307 Wynn Drive NW, Huntsville, AL 35805 USA | FAX: +1.256.837.3839 Senior Software Developer | Mobile: +1.919.641.2923 --=.HsyC3s(16+)nA8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAjwPugoACgkQWEn3bOOMcuq20QCgrsMaFmek2B1cnH31bxqNyWVv KgEAn2zKW406g+J+nE1PCk7EId1NRS8h =OMrB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=.HsyC3s(16+)nA8-- - 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/
