Hello,
in use on ~20 workernodes without problems.
The -238.* kernels has a new way to handle dentry that lead to a kernel
panic when performing a 'stat()' syscall in some very particular cases,
but we suspect it may be related to a GPFS bad-crafted dentry in mmfsd
daemon.
Regards,

Hello,
We have had our first kernel security update following the release of
SL 5.6. We have tested it on a SL5.0 machine. It installs, runs and
openafs works on it. I would feel much better if others ran it to
make sure it works for them.
Can others test this kernel out on their machines to make sure it
doesn't break something we didn't expect.
I have also put the new kvm into the x86_64 testing area with the kernel.
To test or update
SL5
-------
yum --enablerepo=sl-testing update kernel\*
or you can download rpm's by hand at
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/testing/i386/kernel/
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/testing/x86_64/kernel/
kernel-2.6.18-238.1.1.el5
Thanks
