i found pre15 to be rocksolid as far as stability goes..
for the purposes of debugging im running:
Intel Pentium 166
Adaptec AVA-1515 SCSI2 controller. (using the aha152x driver)
PCPartner VX motherboard - 64meg EDO RAM
Creative ViBRA 16 PnP (using the SB16 driver with isapnptools)
DSE 2 port 16C650 serial card (on IRQ's 7 and 9) (using setserial)
RealTek PCI NE2000 clone (RTL 8029) (using PCI NE2000 driver)
S3 ViRGE/DX 2meg PCI video.
other hardware (if relivant)
Quantum 4.3gig Bigfoot CY (EIDE)
Connor 170meg HDD (IDE)
Seagate When Runner II (SCSI2)
the system log reports no such event of a kernel panic so there isnt much
to go on.
The system was running just about everything I usually ahve running
X-Windows 3.3.2 squid 2.1-PRE1
and Apache 1.3.2.
using pppd 2.3.5 binary with the kernels built in 2.2.0 code..
Anyone experainced problems with the 2.0.36-pre16 code?
Just thought i'd mention this incase anyone else experianced a crash.
after all, you cant have innovation without a few rocks on the road :)
and Alan Cox is doing a fabulous job with the kernel maintenance and
developments.
Regards, Jim.
