I've ordered a couple of extra IDE disks and removable drive caddies to
test "stock" 2.5 IDE and floppy code. I should have a system I can
destroy about mid-week.
The daily updated version of this status report can be found at:
http://members.cox.net/tmolina/kernprobs/status.html
Items marked closed with a kernel version have not had recent comments.
They will be archived when Linus issues the next version of 2.5.X.
Notes:
The sigmask problem is marked closed. Linus has spoken and I've
appended his remarks.
The state of the IDE subsystem in 2.5 is in too much of a flux for
tracking problems to be fruitful. I probably won't
add any new ones until feature freeze unless specifically requested.
Floppy support is currently broken in 2.5. Higher priority items are
delaying work on a fix.
