I understand that... but I have heard of problems with 2.2.8 and 2.2.9,
in that they are unstable.
But, I decided to try anyway..
2.2.9 doesn't seem to build the kernel correctly:
# cd /usr/src/linux/arch/sparc/boot/
# ls -al
total 2493

vmlinux.o is not a valid kernel.... where is just plain vmlinux?
