| 98 |
kernel-package 9.0002 to add mkvmlinuz support to hand built packages.

(Sven Luther)

| 106 |
* [sparc]
|
| 107 |
- Drop sparc32 flavour for now. sparc32 kernel is currently in the
|
| 108 |
category "too buggy for us to support". In spite of numerous efforts
|
| 109 |
I still see occasional random filesystem corruptions in my tests.
|
| 110 |
That does NOT mean that we are dropping sparc32 support, we will
|
| 111 |
work with upstream trying to solve these problems for the next
|
| 112 |
kernel release. Those interested in helping/testing are encouraged
|
| 113 |
to subscribe to debian-sparc mailing list.
