Select the "Preemptible Kernel" option under Processor type and features
while configuring.

Hi,

I have downloaded the Kernel 2.5.66 and successfully compiled it.
I understand that in this development kernel Robert Love's preemption patch

exists by default.

Do, we need to build the kernel with some special build options to have the

preemption feature? Or is it enabled by default?

In addition, do we also have the option of building a non-preemtible kernel

(like the old 2.4) with some build options?
