I'll bite: what hoaky patches? I just made a kvm, loaded ubuntu from
cdrom: ~$ uname -r
2.6.26.cybo.2.0 <nothing changed in the standard Debian kernel, just
wanted to make my own.
If you mean for Xen, yea, you need to run the kernel level that 4.1
supports. That is standard application planning: Buy your hardware
based off your application. Newer does not always = better, just newer.
Were you refering to Xen when you said patches? I honestly don't know.
Educate me.
