2.4.21-uv1 patch released

[James Bourne]

Hi all,
I've placed the update version 1 (2.4.21-uv1) patch at
http://www.hardrock.org/kernel/current-updates/ for those who require it.

The current version contains only the NFS silly rename patch as posted for
-rc7 and the updated of EXTRAVERSION.

Please send bug reports to jbourne@hardrock.org.

Regards
James Bourne

I can't boot 2.4.21 without the latest aic7xyz tarball applied,
from http://people.FreeBSD.org/~gibbs/linux/SRC/

The 2.4.21 driver just hangs during boot.

Nifty...

Justin, is this a confirmed problem with the aic79xx driver in 2.4.21 and is
there a 2.4.21-rc8 or later patch that will go in clean?  (I'm thinking the
2.4-20030603 patch should).

Thanks,
James

The BK send file for 2.4.X should go in clean and since it includes
all of the revision history is much preferable to any patch.

Thanks.  I've turned the 20030603.tar.gz file into a patch and added it to
the updates patch I host to allow people a single point to download errata
for the 2.4.21 kernel.

Unfortunately I have never used BK nor have I any intention at this point,
so I hope the tar ball will reflect the same information.  I have included a
pointer to the SRC directory for people to follow as well.

I would just like Marcelo to take the BK version if/when he incorperates
a newer drop into his BK tree.
