[CLUG] new 2.4 kernel series

[CLUG] new 2.4 kernel series

Shame on you for not posting a URL :P

Here it is, and the README is listed below:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/README-2.4
I presume he's going to upload the kernel source RSN..

---------------------------------------------------------
No.

It doesn't really exist yet.

But I'll be gone for three weeks, and in the meantime there's a
"2.4.0-test1" kernel here.  It's not a real 2.4.0 release, but we should
be getting closer.  There's going to be other test-kernels after this
one, and we'll find bugs.  And bad behaviour.  And wonderful features
which we'll document some day.

Alan Cox is most likely to maintain a "2.4.0-ac" series while I'm gone. 
Not the same thing as 2.4.0 either, but by testing these test-kernels
out and giving feedback, we'll get to that some day. 

Have fun.  And let's see how many people find this without it even being
announced ;)

                        Linus

Donncha.
