As others have said, running a stable Fedora allows you to replace just the one piece you care about today - for example newer kernel builds. I regularly run all manner of upstream and also test builds of RHEL-RT kernels on my laptop without worrying about whether the reason it fails to boot is related to something I don't care about at that particular moment[0]. Jon. [0] I agree with the comments about initrd. I have been bitten by that lack of including virtio modules a bunch of times recently when testing kernels. I was asked earlier about zlib support in m-i-t and whether anyone really cares any more. I thought not (since we have compressed filesystems and nobody even in embedded is using compressed modules), but perhaps there is a use case there. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
