aboot vs. linux-image-2.6.24



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi chaps,

I guess this is mainly aimed at Steve:

As many of you will have noticed, the ES45 machines {albeniz,goetz}.debian.org running standard etch SMP kernels have been rather unstable of late. We'd like to try using the etch-and-a-half 2.6.24, but of course this can't be loaded by etch's version of aboot, so we will also need to upgrade that to lenny's version of aboot, which I believe already has the fixes described in:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/14/259

does it not?

Anyway, I've been having trouble building this version of aboot on etch. It looks like some problems with linux-kernel-headers:

Does this mean we're going to have to upgrade the C library to etch- and-a-half to make this work?
