Why Compile a New Kernel?
,----[ Quote ]
| I lost count of the number of times someone
| told me I was nuts for wanting to compile a
| new kernel Why not get a new different distro
| of Linux that works on a specific machine?
| What is wrong with the kernel that comes with
| the distro? In many cases, the default kernel
| works just fine. Conversely, there are reasons
| for compiling a new kernel.
|
| For this article, I am focusing on the PC
| architecture. A 32-bit PC can vary from a
| slightly ancient 386 to the latest chip from
| different manufacturers. While the range is
| not as a great, the same is true for 64-bit
| chips.

| In the free world of Linux I have a working, usable, fast
| and stable 64-bit operating system. In the secret world of
| Microsoft I will have to return to using the 32-bit version.
| But the question is will I? I think I will stick with Linux.
| It looks like I need to go back on my hands and knees and beg
| forgiveness from my SUSE 10.1 system for every doubting it
| and for my unfaithful fling with Microsoft.
