About the binary package. I must admit I'm a total novice. What do I need to do? One x86_32, one x86_64? What glibc, does it matter what distro I compile on? I want to have a "make rpm" and "make deb" but I've never done that, I was hoping someone more experienced would pick it up. But you are right I have it on my schedule to work on the Wiki, installation and init-scripts, right after this final push to mainline. Sorry, for not having this already Boaz BTW: Source tar balls are available from the gitweb GUI by pressing on the "snapshot" link next to any commit. I should link to it from the WiKi Best regards Boaz -- 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/
