Hi all. Release candidate 4 is ready for you to test and now being uploaded to Sourceforge. It should be used with the following updated version specific patches, which are also now available: - 2.4.21 revision 1 - 2.4.22 revision 1 - 2.4.23 revision 5. - 2.4.24 - 2.6.1 revision 1 Changes since rc3A: - Fixed issues with preemption resulting in 'bad: scheduling while atomic' messages in 2.6. - Lots of cleanups and new documentation in the code. - Fixed broken automatic swapon/off support. Now also used in debug_info proc entry. - Preliminary SMP support for 2.4. 2.6 support is coming. - LZF compression (thanks to Marc Lehmann) and readahead support. Suspend and resume in half the time! - Fixed long standing oops when aborting during writing the image header. Thanks to Bernard Blackham. (I would have done it eventually!) - Serial port power management support (Thanks Michael Frank). MTRR support converted to PM support. - Many other small fixes and improvements. Further documentation is to be added and one minor quirk addressed, but codewise, I'm wondering if this might be 2.0 by another name.
