Warning.svg Warning: This kernel branch is currently frozen.

Essentially that means it is neither maintained nor supported, could contain security vulnerabilities and other bugs, and generally should not be used.

Please check the list of supported kernel branches at Download/kernel page.


Warning.svg Warning: this is an old version of 2.6.18 kernel. For the latest version, see Download/kernel/2.6.18/028stab056.1.

Changes

  • FUSE support for VEs.
  • Critical scheduler bug fixes.
  • Miscellaneous bug and compilation fixes.
  • Code cleanups.

For the complete list of changes in this release, see git changelog for kernel 028test005.

Config changes

  • +CONFIG_FUSE=m

Compatibility

  • Please note that if you use yum and have openvz-kernel-devel repository enabled, there will be no automatic upgrade to this new kernel. This will be fixed during next kernel releases.

Notes

  • For FUSE in VE configuration, see FUSE.

RPMS

You need only one kernel RPM so please choose the appropriate one depending on your hardware:

  • If your x86 (i686, IA32) machine has more than 4 GB of RAM, choose kernel-enterprise RPM.
  • If your x86 (i686, IA32) or x86_64 (AMD64, EM64T) machine has more than one CPU (or a CPU with hyperthreading), choose kernel-smp RPM.
  • Otherwise, use the plain kernel RPM (i.e. kernel).

For more info, see Kernel flavors.
