[Users] Patch for openSUSE 10.2 kernels?

Tue Feb 27 22:35:30 EST 2007

Hi,

some time ago there was an OpenVZ kernel rpm for openSUSE 10.1 / SLES 10
but I have read in the mail archives that this kernel is no longer
recommended and one should use a 2.6.18-based kernel instead. That's
fine for me (especially because openSUSE 10.2 also uses 2.6.18), but
I can't find an OpenVZ kernel patch which would apply to the openSUSE
10.2 kernel. There are always conflicts and I'm not sure whether it
will work even if I fix up these conflicts.

Running the RHEL/FC OpenVZ kernel is not really an option because I
depend on some of the patches in the openSUSE kernel. Will there be
a patch which works on top of the openSUSE 10.2 kernel or a matching
kernel rpm?

Besides that, I'd like to test OpenVZ on some machines running a
vanilla 2.6.20 kernel. Are there plans to support that one or merge
more stuff into mainline? I'm mostly using the network virtualization
features and hope the current discussions will lead to a merge in
the near future.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
