What Linux kernels are supported?
We strongly recommend using one of the most recent 2.6 or 2.4 kernels for your hardware platform and distribution or any stable Linux kernel from the www.kernel.org site. Using newer Linux kernels, based on Linux kernel versions from the www.kernel.org site, is not strictly prohibited. In case of problems with the operating system, please try to reproduce it on a stable Linux kernel and contact the support organization of your Linux distributor if the problem persists. For more information, please see also: Supported architectures and Supported Linux distributions.
