What does it say via dmesg during bootup about the architecture (right at
the beginning) ?

The kernels which are working best on our AS 255 are 2.2.17pre kernels.
Currently we use 2.2.17pre20 and it seems to be very stable.

What's the railroad to me ?
I never go to see
Where it ends.
It fills a few hollows,
And makes banks for the swallows,
It sets the sand a-blowing,
And the blackberries a-growing.
(Henry David Thoreau)
