It is the first kernel I've tried since 0.99pl8 that I couldn't keep
running. We had immediate trouble with our network card, a 3c590, due
to a broken driver. Other folks have had trouble with it under low
memory conditions, due to some changes that were supposed to speed
things up from 2.0.29. If you run "badblocks -w" on a partition
(note: this will wipe out your partition!) you will exhaust your
buffers and experience problems on 2.0.30.
We've had no problems whatsoever running pre-patch-7 applied to
2.0.30; I'd recommend at least testing it, because if you don't find
problems with it it will soon become 2.0.31. (After a couple of known
minorkinks are worked out.)
