Hi 


Section 1.5 (Build Notes) in the Reference build is talking about how
rock solid the system is or should be.  Would it be worth adding a note
about stable kernels as well?

Would it be useful to add notes about new major hardware support in
kernels?  Stuff like the CPU updates, like the Core2 Duo support in
2.6.20. Or KVM.

It looks like (to me) that the Linux kernel 2.6.16-?? is the most stable
kernel of the 2.6 branch.  I mean, the developers are still bug fixing
it.  We are looking at 44 patch (bug fix) updates.

The last update was on the 20-Mar-2007.

Just a thought.
