    As I recall, someone answered that you should get a kernel from kernel.org,
    set CONFIG_REGPARM and CONFIG_4KSTACKS to "n" then recompile your kernel
    that way. You cannot use the Fedora kernel as it won't compile with those
    options.

    Just from memory... search the archives for Truth.

    Cheers,
