All .28 series kernels (all rc kernels and the final one, too) do |
| 20 |
not compile on Alpha at all. We reported this when rc1 came out |
| 21 |
and the culprit and a possible solution were discussed[0], but |
| 22 |
nothing materialized. I re-triggered this on bugzilla today[1], |
| 23 |
hoping it will be fixed soon. Until then, vanilla .28 is unusable |
| 24 |
on alpha. |

I'll be trying that as soon as I find the time (read: somewhere |
| 29 |
around summer 2015 if nothing gets added to my work-pile :)) |
