Fedora: 2004-080 Critical: Kernel Bug Causes Boot Issues

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

Fedora Core Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions

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

input and output, etc.

The previous security errata (2.4.22-1.2173) unfortunatly contained a bug

which made some systems unbootable, due to breakage in the aacraid scsi

driver. This update contains no further changes vs 2173.
