There are lots of spinlock issues fixed with a kernel that is in our
testing repo ...
THIS IS A TESTING KERNEL !!!!
:)
You can get it like this:
place the testing repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d/ ... the repo file is
here:
http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/CentOS-Testing.repo
Then you can get the testing kernel (or kernel-smp, kernel-hugemem. etc)
with the command:
yum --enable-repo=c4-testing install kernel
(or kernel-smp, kernel-hugemem, etc.)
(did I mention this was a testing kernel ... :)
