After much work, we finally have available a kernel-ml package set for el9 ready for testing. Packages for x86_64 and aarch64 are available for manual download and installation:

https://elrepo.org/people/ajb/devel/kernel-ml/el9/

For the first round of testing we are primarily concerned with installation, dependency and boot issues. Do packages install cleanly, any unexpected dependency issues for the combinations you are trying to install, and errors or warnings during or after booting. Please tell us what worked for you and what didn't. We expect these packages to install cleanly and be fully functional, subject to the enabled feature set (see below).

This first set of packages are based off the RHEL 9.0 kernel configuration. Some of the kernel options you may normally expect to find in an elrepo kernel offering may not have been enabled yet. For the second phase of testing, we will be asking for you to check, test and report on any features you would like added that may not currently be in RHEL. Just a clear list of the config options you would like enabled will be preferred (please no patches or config files of your own). For example, amateur radio is always disabled in the RHEL configurations (el{5|6|7|8|9}). So a simple request for "CONFIG_HAMRADIO=y" is all you need to do. Having end-users making configuration requests is how they can help out in the development process.

Providing feedback:
Please either provide feedback by email to one of the elrepo mailing lists (requires a subscription) or to the elrepo bug-tracker at https://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=1194 We would prefer a new bug request for features you would like enabled as this makes things easier for us to track. If you post to a mailing list or elsewhere, we will open a bug request on your behalf to track progress. New package sets will be released as per the upstream release cycle at kernel.org (normally a couple times per week), so any changes should make it into the next package set within a few days.

Thanks,
On behalf of the ELRepo Team
