Greetings,

I'm thinking of migrating my main server to Debian, I need stability and recent version of small number of pkgs.
in addition I need to recompile with a out of tree patch.
I had Debian stable before but replaced it because upgrade broke the system and the versions used for the mentioned above set of pkgs were too old for what I need.
I know that Testing has more recent pkgs version but I don't know how stable is it.

any info will be appreciate.

Thanks,

Dagg.

What version of Debian are you running?  What Debian packages?  What
hypervisor?  Is the service in a VM?  Are all of the other services in
VM's?  What service?  What are you recompiling?  What is the patch?
What router software?

I was running debian, I'm not running now. I need kernel. qemu and libvirt mainly, the rest doesn't matters versionwise.
I have two vms, router and streamer.
the router has 5 pci devs pt, the streamer has 2 pci and 2 usb pt.

the patch is infamous ACS Override kernel patch, that is the only one I compromise on
the router's os is openwrt, streamer os is libreelec

Thanks,

Eial


Rather than getting fancy with virtualization and kernel patches, perhaps you should use a hardware firewall/ router device, a dedicated computer for LibreELEC (in a DMZ), and a general-purpose computer with Debian Stable for your LAN services (?).
