Hi,

Here goes -pre6. 

It contains several ACPI fixes (the USB "not working anymore" problems in
-pre5 should be gone), support for the SCTP protocol, x86-64/PPC/SH
merges, network drivers update (EMAC, e1000, sk98lin), megaraid update,
amongst others.

Enjoy :)

* [PATCH] fix 2.4.x incorrect argv[0] for init
@ 2003-09-09 22:32 Erik Andersen

  To: Marcelo Tosatti; +Cc: linux-kernel

In both 2.4.x and in 2.6.x, when someone specifies "init=" to
select an alternative binary to run instead of /sbin/init,
argv[0] is not set correctly.  This is a problem for programs
such as busybox that multiplex applications based on the value of
argv[0].  For example, even if you specify init=/bin/sh" on the
kernel command line, busybox will still receive "/sbin/init" as
argv[0], and will therefore run init rather than /bin/sh...

This patch fixes it.  Please apply,

 -Erik
