Hi, I noticed that while 2.6 compiles fine as domain 0 guest, it''s not enabled by default in the make file. Is it not working yet, or just not enabled because it''s not being used by anybody ? ;) -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.

We''ve not put much effort into cleaning the build process as yet; will do so before 2.0 release. cheers, S. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.

Expect to see these these checked in next week. 2.6 should work fine as an unprivileged domain, but you''ll need a 2.4 in domain 0 for the moment. In general, 2.6 has had a lot less testing, but it passes LTP, lmbench, osdb and a bunch of other tests (at least last time I tried).
