good, I'll apply this when we have done more testing and are confident with this version combination. > But please test rt-aufs well since I don't know what test is good enough > for that. okay, we will! > > > One question that I'd like to ask you is how this could possibly work in=20 > > the future for newer kernel releases.

I suppose it makes sense to 'play it by ear' and create a patch when needed from the current linux + rt-patch release out there, depending on need. I am quite confident that this combo right now is gonna prove to be usable, I have used this kernel version + patch for a while now and have had not many problems at all with it. I'll post back anything that we'll find related to aufs though! Thanks a bunch, Karsten -- -- http://krgn.goto10.org
