have anyone tried kernel 2.6.2
I am wondering if any one have successfully compiled and installed kernel 2.6.2 on RH9? If so, did you have to upgrade modutils? I had tried kernel 2.6.0 and 2.6.1. But during boot up, it failed to load modules. I believe you need to upgrade modutils to get over this problem. My concern is, if I do upgrade modutils, then will I still be able to use 2.4.24 ( will the upgraded modutils be compatible with previous kernel version?). Thanks.

Re: have anyone tried kernel 2.6.2
no use waiting for release .18 or something, it seems 2.6 is not going on the same bumpy road as 2.4 did.
all i want to say is, go ahead and use 2.6 on your own pc (or test box), get the feeling already and by the time the big distros include it, it will be old news to you.

Re: have anyone tried kernel 2.6.2
Tried it for fun, it works OK, but it's a one way road. Once on 2.6, no way back to 2.4 (or full reinstall).
On searching as you did, I found a step by step tut that you may find useful too :

Re: have anyone tried kernel 2.6.2
I use 2.6.2 as my stable kernel.. Works great! .. and is more responsive!
The best part of 2.6.x is that it supports my chipset so that I can stick the hard drives in 32bit DMA mode.
