Description Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-02-24 05:41:57 UTC
Arches, please proceed. You won't be able to test this out in a chroot however.

emerge kexec-tools
edit /etc/conf.d/kexec
start the kexec service
reboot
verify that the host doesn't hit your bios, it will just fire up the new kernel right away.

I'm going to refrain from marking stable on amd64 myself even though I am on the team because this will benefit from more hardware exposure.

thx.

amd64/x86 stable, all arches done.
