Description Ian Cooper 2004-06-26 12:42:43 UTC

Stock kernel 2.4.26 sources with patches designed to support Intel SATA RAID on the 82801ER (ICH5-R) and the 875P chipset, as well as miscellaneous enhancements.

Patches:

libata: 2.4.26-rc1-libata3.patch.bz2
iswraid: iswraid-2.4.22.patch
agpgart patch to bind the i845 setup to the i875 PCI ID (attached)
device mapper: 2.4.23-dm1.tar.bz2
supermount: 020-supermount-1.2.11a.diff.bz2
bootsplash: 21-bootsplash-3.0.7.diff.bz2 (progress bar)

Patch to arch/i386/Makefile to allow gcc 3.3. to set the "-march=pentium4" flag
Example kernel config for Gentoo systems.

Anyone wishing to use these kernel sources will need to create an apppropriate initrd (ebuild submission coming). If you wish to use grub, then you will need to use the grub-0.94-r2 ebuild to be submitted that is patched to support ataraid devices.

Do you still want this kernel in? Seems to be pretty outdated now with 2.4.28 and 2.6.9

See comment #9
Also, rather than getting this into portage, it would be best to get the i875
patches accepted upstream, if they are not already.
