This release fixes a few critical problems in 2.4.23, including fixes for two security bugs.

Upgrade is recommended.

Detailed changelog follows

Hmm. Does this "postpone" all stuff that already went into
2.4.24-preX? Like XFS... Just for my ignorance :-)

Thanks
Martin

Yes.

The 2.4.24-pre tree with all its modifications becomes 2.4.25-pre.

When we can expect 2.4.25-pre?

Probably when marcelo thinks there are enough changes to make another -pre release.

Now the real question is will it be 2.4.25-pre4 or 2.4.25-pre1? ;)

I have asked because on one machine (with heavy load) i have problems with 2.4.23 and 2.4.24-pre* - crashes without any information (no oops) in logs file or console (connected via RS). Only blank screen. Sync or umount via SysRq doesn't work, only (re)boot. System is RH 9, ext3 2x2.66GHz (with HT), aic79xx, 4GB RAM +4GB swap.

Hi Lukasz,

Which kernels work on this box?

Have you tried any other 2.4.x or 2.6.x ?
