9 I have just started to install web/email servers using Gentoo hardened 2.6.x kernel for the first time last week. My first 2.6.x Gentoo server is still being tested! I always have questioned/concerned the new Linux kernel naming convention that each 2.6.x version of the kernel would not have the time needed to mature (like the 2.4.x kernel) and that each and every one of them would have incurred different bugs and compatibility issues. This thread is just one of the many examples.
