A year or so for now this may not be true, which makes these kinds of changes very nearly in the "point in time solution" category. My main point in all of this is that whilst Linux should work on a braod range of system types, there has to be a limit somewhere and I think 2MB is off the deep end. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
