Hi all,
URL: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mcp/tmp/
ok, next release candidate for 2.6-WOLK release. Apply ontop of a vanilla=20
2.6.5 from kernel.org. THIS IS NOW BASE ON Kernel 2.6.5!
Many thanks to Rik and Michael for staircase/batch update and rsbac!
BIG NOTE:
=2D ---------
We now have 6 addons in place, named:
=2D - grsecurity v2.0 Final for 2.6.5
=2D - rsbac v1.2.3-pre4 for 2.6.5
=2D - Systrace v1.5 for 2.6.1
=2D - gobohide for 2.6.3
=2D - Win4Lin for 2.6.5
=2D - Staircase Scheduler v5.3 for 2.6.4
Apply an addon manually. All six patches are located in the patch itself in=
=20
the ./ADDON-patches directory after applying the main patch. Apply as usual=
=2E=20
You can only apply one addon at a time! More to come so more addons will pl=
ay=20
together nicely. Next addon will be vservers for 2.6. Thanks to Herbert :)
Please test it. I'm gonna release either a next -rc or -final this weekend.
P.S.: Herbert: If you do the merge of vservers, please do 2 merges if you c=
an.=20
One ontop of plain 2.6.5-wolk3.0-rc2 and one ontop of the same with the=20
grsecurity2 patch applied in ./ADDON-patches, so I can finally fix up=20
vservers vs. grsecurity issues so both play nice together. Many thanks.
