Linux kernel 2.6.16

ChangeLog

Based on the vanilla kernel (2.6.16.57) from kernel.org.

Preparation

These kernel packets needs a packet providing linux-initramfs-tool. There is no such packet avaiable at Debian Sarge!

At my Kernel Repository there is the packet yaird which provides linux-initramfs-tool. But this will only work if the installation of the kernel happens on a running 2.6 kernel. If it is not the case, you can grab initfamfs-tools from www.backports.org which will work with 2.4 kernels or install the standard Debian 2.6 Kernel first.

Intel IPW2200/IPW2100 WLAN chipsets

Since version 2.6.14 the kernel supports Intel IPW2200/IPW2100 WLAN chipsets out of the box. To use the the modules you need an additional package containing the needed firmware:

module firmware package
ipw2100.ko ipw2100-fw-13
ipw2200.ko ipw2200-fw-24

The packeges are located in the non-free section of my Debian Repository!

Kernel Configurations

There is the base config for i486 processors:

They are patched with these processor specific configs:

For each of them it is build the kernel-header and kernel-image packages. The package names are build as: kernel-image-2.6.16-fiasko-(athlon|i486|pentium-iv).

The patched kernel source is found in the kernel-source-2.6.16-fiasko, the kernel documentation in the kernel-doc-2.6.16-fiasko package.

Additional these kernel modules packages are build (some of them found in the non-free section):

The package names are build as: <modules-name>-2.6.16-fiasko-(athlon|i486|pentium-iv).
