2.6.17-grml

Being back from Robocup 2006 I've been working on 2.6.17-grml:

% uname -a
Linux grml 2.6.17-grml #1 PREEMPT Tue Jun 20 19:39:46 CEST 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

The first public build of 2.6.17-grml including some additional modules is available online now.

The current patch-list (extracted from the README):

  • 1000_2.6.17.1.patch
  • 2200_acpi-nsxfeval-flood.patch
  • 2300_usb-insufficient-power.patch
  • 4000_ipw3945-1.0.5-for-2.6.17.patch
  • 4100_dm-bbr.patch
  • 4110_promise-pdc2037x.patch
  • 4120_iteraid.patch
  • 4130_libata-acpi.patch
  • 4300_squashfs-3.0.patch
  • 4400_speakup-20060618.patch
  • 5000_grml-version.patch
  • 5001_grml_logo.patch
  • 5002_linux-2.6.17-commandline.patch

Notes:

  • the kernel has been built using gcc 4.1.2. So make sure you have debian packages gcc-4.1 and g++-4.1 on your box if you plan to compile additional modules
  • reiser4: is not yet part of the grml-kernel; anyone out there needing a reiser4 enabled kernel?
  • VMware-users: 2.6.17-grml works using vmware-any-any-update101

Do you think a patch should find its way to the grml-kernel? Please let us know so we can put the patch to our review list.
