Newer versions of the kernel has been released, and are highly
recommended for security reasons.

Sommai,

Linux kernel 2.2.16 should be ok. The problem is specifically with an
I/O bug in kernel 2.2.14.

You should be able to upgrade the kernel to the 2.4
series without any problem. We have many production
boxes with RH 6.2 and the 2.4 kernel on them. Mysql
runs much better with the 2.4 kernel, esp on a multi
proc box.

MySQL and kernel upgrade

2001-12-17 Thread Sommai Fongnamthip 

Hi,
I was read recommendation from MySQL download page to upgrade Linux Kernel 
for latest MySQL version.  I have problem because I must still with Linux 
Red Hat 6.2 (kernel 2.2.16-3) because it's my production server and Red Hat 
has many task to upgrade in newer kernel.  What will effect my system if I 
install latest MySQL with current kernel?
