That's something I was thinking about as means to get out of the situation where both old bootloader and rootfs images for linux-hh devices are cross-incompatible with the new ones (to appear yet). But only when new ones ready. I think that we should prioritize package manager upgrades by all means, and use image upgrades only when package manager upgrades don't work smoothly. On the other hand, r0 went with pretty annoying 100% CPU usage bug, which would be nice to exterminate completely. So, overall 0 points from me. > If you think this is a good idea, do we > want to shoot for -r4 (after testing), or do mentors want to get some > more bugfixes in and aim for -r5? I'd like to bump to r5 right now, marking that linux-hh kernels now support kexec command line. So, it would be Angstrom 2007.12-r5 and kernel 2.6.21-hh20-r13. Ones the new bootloaders are out, all before that would need to be nuked. (And all that because of thinko in the arm-linux kernel and/or kexec command line support patch, which bothers to put atags not where old kernels expect them). > > regards, > > Koen > > - -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] will go go away in december 2007, > please use [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead. > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) > > iD8DBQFHt/3AMkyGM64RGpERAsDBAJ4728mOXxV7udwK+D7nWIlHVXoCvQCfSlL2 > CoQt9kuPO7VW7Ck9MxNWwtg= > =c6mC > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > _______________________________________________ > Angstrom-distro-devel mailing list > Angstrom-distro-devel@linuxtogo.org > http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-devel -- Best regards, Paul mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-devel mailing list Angstrom-distro-devel@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-devel
