Play! =3D=3D Technical details =3D=3D The images were built using Edgy Eft's build system on current ubuntu GIT repository. The configurations of the kernels are the same as ubuntu ships them + reiser4 option enabled as module. The images come in a few flavours: 386,686,k7, server-bigiron, server. =3D=3D Disclaimer =3D=3D This is all experimental stuff. These are my first publicly available kernel images. Tested *only* on my virtualized machine on Edgy Eft! Please test and report. I am open to suggestions. One more thing... If it breaks, don't sue me, my pet hamster is an excellent attourney. =3D=3D Contact =3D=3D My name is Maciej So=B3tysiak You can reach me at maciej(at)soltysiak(dot)com
