Call For Linux 2.5 Testers

Posted by timothy on from the oh-please-call-the-next-one-2.6 dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Linus has put out a call for testers with the release of 2.5.40. IDE appears to be in working condition, and the only really obvious thing that could be a problem anymore is the lack of any working volume manager... (LVM is b0rk, atm) So unless that's a problem, start your kernel compiles."

  1. Gotta love how Linux development proceeds... by duffbeer703 · · Score: 1, Troll

    Members of the kernel development community don't seem to agree that the development kernel will function on IDE drives without destroying them...

    Maybe instead of bloating the featureset, they should be working on getting the I/O working?
