Does anyone know of distributions (slackware, redhat, caldera) that have a 2.0 kernel standard, w/ all the utilities that go with it yet?
Debian and Redhat are the two distributions that I know that are using the 2.0 kernel. Debian-1.1 comes with the 2.0 Kernel in its base install.
With RedHat, you have to install the Redhat 3.0.3 distribution, and then grab approximately 10 RPM packages to upgrade to the 2.0 kernel. All you have to do is grab all of the files in:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com//pub/redhat-3.0.3/i386/updates/2.0-kernel/RPMS
Just put them in a directory, say /tmp/upgrade, and then run "rpm --upgrade *". Quite easy!
