Fedora: FEDORA-2006-200 Major Kernel Update Announcement

fedora
Calendar Grey February 15, 2005
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Kernel version upgrade alert for Fedora Core 2, incorporating enhanced security measures and functionality updates.
Updated package.

Summary

The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any

Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions

of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device

input and output, etc.

- Backport some exec-shield fixes from devel/ branch.

- Scan all SCSI LUNs by default.

Theoretically, some devices may hang when being probed, though

there should be few enough of these that we can blacklist them

instead of having to whitelist every other device on the planet.

* Tue Feb 08 2005 Dave Jones

- Use both old-style and new-style for USB initialisation.

* Mon Feb 07 2005 Dave Jones [2.6.10-1.762_FC3, 2.6.10-1.13_FC2]

- Update to 2.6.10-ac12
