Re: [Ltsp-discuss] NFS experience on 2.6.x kernel

[Jim M. <jam@McQuil.com>]

Joey,

the 2.6.9 kernel in ltsp-4.1 has lots of problems.

Also, the 2.6 kernel has NO support for NFS-Swap.  That's a 2.4 thing only.

I highly recommend moving up to LTSP-4.2, where we have a 2.6.16 kernel 
and if you need network swapping, we have NBD_Swap.
