Bug#109059: wnpp: ITP: kernel-image-2.2.19-udma100-ext3



Package: wnpp
Version: N/A
Severity: wishlist

udma100-ext3 variant of boot floppies uses a kernel patched with the latest
ext3 and Hedrick's IDE patch

The patch supports the Promise and Highpoint chipsets used on EIDE
controler cards or builtin on modern boards with VIA chipset. If you
install the standard kernel-image package you may not be able to
reboot, since the standard package does not contain the necessary IDE
patch.

An additional extra feature is ext3fs (aka Journaling for ext2). This
extension is up and backward compatible with ext2. Though you must not
expect real reliability and safeness for your data.
