I'm starting to do some more experimenting with kernels, having been going to the 6.1.38-RT for so long, I found it wouldn't run on one my old dual core Dell's (edit well it would run, but choke up and crash), so I was runnning sr2 which works fine. Then I dropped in the 6.6.0 kernel under sr2, and voila, it ran so much faster that I was flabbergasted.

So I tried that kernel on my new machines and it didn't do so well. I'm trying to remember what it was, but it balked, which surpriesed me, because the newer kernel ran on the old machine better, and bugged out on the newer machines. So I guess ultimately it has to do with the modules.

I'll give this one a try and see how it does.

Tried it and on itself it works ok on my Asus laptop, but there's problem with the firmware because in the firmware sfs there's "lib" as regular folder, conflicts with the rootfs that has lib as being a symlink.

The 01firmware should load in /usr/lib/firmware which is a real directory in the usrmerge location for the /firmware directory.

Yes. But it doesn't.

@fredx181 You're right.....I put the wrong one in.

It's fixed now....was wondering why some things were wonky suddenly. Also fixed in the KLV-Airedale-sr13.iso package that is being tested and will be released soon.
