Klaus always uses the latest stable kernel released so when 2.6 becomes stable you will see it.Originally Posted by kiwiguy
Hi all.
One thing that I'm sure would be mega-popular would be to have a version of Knoppix which uses the 2.6 kernel. With 2.6 rapidly becoming stable, a Knoppix distro with it would _rock_ !
Maybe Klaus has some comments on when (or if) a 2.6 version may be appearing .... Anyway, just my 2c worth

It's avaiable for Kurumin (a Knoppix like distro)
There are packs

and instructions on how to install it (portuguese only)

This kernel is very speedy. It's for Kurumin Linux but I think that it works in Knoppix too.
thanks for the information. What I am interested to know is how to build cloop for 2.6 kernel, are there any patches needed or just a recompile using the 2.6 source tree ? This is the main concern I have about 2.6Originally Posted by henrique
--Klaus had to rebuild cloop for **2.4.22** - I doubt you'll be seeing a 2.6-based Knoppix beta any time soon.
--See my thread for some details.

( ... and I'm sure than whenever a 2.6 version of Knoppix comes out, it'll be a *beauty* ! )
Thanks again, bye for now -

This is a script by Carlos E. Morimoto that automates the installation of the new kernel in Kurumin Linux:

Ps. I changed myself kernel-image-2.6.0-test4_Prometeus.1.0_i386.deb ---> kernel-image-2.6.0-test4_Prometeus.2.0_i386.deb
