- If all things worked the way one expected, the best linux kernel to
- choose would be the latest kernel in the "stable" (even) version numbers.
- I believe that this is 1.0.9 currently. Unfortunately, due to many people
- wanting the features of the experimental versions and no freezing of
- the development code to 1.2.0 ("stable") and 1.3.0 (experimental),
- the "stable" kernel is becoming rather dated. The problem with
- just choosing an experimental kernel is that little (and often no)
- documentation exists to tell you what changed between kernel versions.
