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. |

Changes
- Rebased to 2.6.18.
Config changes
- Accomodated to be in line with 2.6.18
Compatibility
- Kernel RPM naming scheme changed: rpm name is now 'kernel', and 'release' field includes 'ovz' prefix.
- 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.
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.
