Re: Open Discussion, kernel in production environment



things are getting better with the distros staying close to the vanilla
kernel, but my memory is long enough to not really trust them yet ;-)

But the distro kernel is only there to boot the machine in order to
compile a custom kernel? And for reboot when one's shiny new custom
kernel falls over :o)

The best systems have that 'distro kernel' also replaced,
by a self-made 'working' one :>
