Christof, you can simply uncomment these entries and rebuild the kernel with skas3. I had the patches commented out, when loading external kernel modules started to fail miserably: http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=201 It is very possible, that it was unrelated to both uml and host-skas3. I suspect that it had to do with yet another nice kernel-source(code) hurdle change that did not save the config files into /configs/ as they were used to build the kernels ... > While I tested UML on FC2 I had no problem with the stability of the > patched host kernel.

Alexander, just to outrule this, did you build external modules against that kernel (and were you able to properly load them)? I'd very much like to see skas3 back to the ATrpms' kernel.
