Will FC8 be getting the new 2.6.24 kernel?
Thanks!

Arch

You don't want this kernel to be introduced into this version of Fedora.It has problems like locking up on boot at creating /dev/rtc exists andalso problems with the Cisco Wireless driver card.

You can get it from rawhide by updating mkinitrd and nash followed bypulling in the kernel. In my experience the later version breaks things.
