Mudit, may you use the updated kernel 2.4.3-12 in the RH 7.1 updates
directory?

The stock 2.4.2 kernel w/ RH 7.1 doesn't even work w/ certain hardware
configurations.  (It's not for lack of a driver, but for a lack of a working
driver!)

If you're doing certification/qualification tests, etc., you probably should
update to the *patched* version.

Just my $0.02 US.

Subject: [reiserfs-list] RedHat 7.1 / ReiserFS


Folks,
 
The ReiserFS download page states that it's dangerous to use the ReiserFS
with kernel 2.4.3 or older 2.4.x kernel versions. For several reasons we
must use RedHat 7.1 with the included 2.4.2 kernel. It is our desire to use
ReiserFS.
 
Q1: What are the specific issues which are problematic with RedHat's 2.4.2
kernel and ReiserFS?
 
Q2: Are there any kernel or ReiserFS patches for RedHat's 2.4.2 kernel which
address the issues in Q1?
 
If this is already in a FAQ or someplace else, sorry for the post.
 
Thanks for your help.

Mudit
