^^^ Man I would sure like to see the above message put into the FAQ. Could go into the Linux section under "How to upgrade RH 8.0 to kernel version 2.4.19 with no RedHat patches and gain lots of performance". Or something like that. I think/hope the instructions are good enough to work for everyone using RH 8.0. It should also work for 7.3 except for where I specifically mention menus and kernel development packages.

Everything under the 1st paragraph can go in. I know it's not a frequently asked question, but it should be. I am going to recommend that everyone do this who has RedHat 8.0 (and 7.3) and it would be nice to have a place to point them to. It would also be nice if someone can try and follow the directions and let me know if they need refining.

I guess it's really more the guts of a specialized HOWTO but we really don't have a HOWTO section on our FAQ site (yet).

Thank you *very* much. Now I have one teensie weensie little favor to ask. Could you add a disclaimer at the very top that indicates something like this:

 

quote:NOTE: These instructions are specifically designed to upgrade your RedHat 8.0 default installed kernel to the stock v2.4.19 kernel. Most of the steps also apply to other distributions so your mileage may vary. See http://www.kernel.org/ for more information the Linux kernel.

Thanks again!!
