Re: 2.4.22-bk14-libata1.patch.bz2 ?

[Franklin Chua <fchua@ntsp.nec.co.jp>]

Thanks for the response.

I'm forced to used 2.4.22 because this is the latest kernel version that
openss7 supports for their sctp implementation.

I already tried 2.4.31 but I'm having problems with threaded programs.
They kept on crashing on a newly compiled 2.4.x kernel.

Anyways, I'm already using 2.6.12.5 kernel so I don't have to worry
about sctp, sata, and thread problems anymore. =)
