For what concerns amd64, PREEMPT caused only trouble so far (random Oopses and panics), thus it was deactivated in the early stages of the kernel-image packages (see the CHangelog, it happened arounfd August last year). > It is a bug or an advice? PREEMPT for amd64 is currently being worked at in 2.6.12-rc, maybe it will become stable for custom kernels soon. Kind regards Frederik Schueler -- ENOSIG
