Come on, give me a little credit, those kernels include the features and the
patches he was using on Linux-Mandrake (which 2.2.19 doesn't) _and_ were
patched against the strace vulnerabilities.
Sorry, but stock kernels from kernel.org are missing a boatload of features
I use daily, including a version of software raid you can actually use.
But this is all way way off topic for this list, so answer privately if you
want to continue this discussion.
