Software update: Linux kernel 2.4.3-pre2
Already the second patch leading up to kernel 2.4.3. The ‘hottest’ item is in pre1: SMP Athlon, but without the accompanying 760MP motherboard this is just something to dream of. As always, this applies to all flavors of Linux, not just i386 .
Of course another warning: this is pre-production software that you should only install if you know what you are doing!
For completeness the changelog of both pre-1 and pre-2:
pre2:
Jens Axboe: fix loop device deadlocks
Greg KH: USB updates
Alan Cox: continued merging
Tim Waugh: parport and documentation updates
Cort Dougan: PowerPC merge
Jeff Garzik: network driver updates
Justin Gibbs: new and much improved aic7xxx driver 6.1.5
pre1:
Chris Mason: reiserfs, another null bytes bug
Andrea Arkangeli: make SMP Athlon build
Alexander Zarochentcev: reiserfs directory fsync SMP locking fix
Jeff Garzik: PCI network driver updates
