-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Before I do this, I have a few questions; I know that the bulk majority of the documentation for my questions may exist online or in /usr/src/UPDATING, but I was just curious of the major changes that I can expect between 6 and 7: 1. What scheduler is currently the most complete for SMP/multi-core capable processors? 2. Do I need to add some sort of compatibility layer for 6 going to 7 (similar to compat_5)? 3. What are (briefly) some of the major changes for the ABI/API going from 6 to 7? Someone mentioned some changes to the ABI when I emailed the hackers@ list previously, so I was just curious. 4. How is SATA support for SIS motherboards under 7? Decent? 5. Is 7 running gcc-4.x? Thanks! - -Garrett -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.1 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFqZuoEnKyINQw/HARAoddAKCckCXHkzXJ9ReG4rgECck0wFdlfwCaA24C zChCcF+a8yK3tV4JXxn1UQo= =gMS9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
