P.S. If I had my way, I would also drop GRND_RANDOM. Most software
won't use it, there's no legacy installed base,
The discussion of
this is in the commit description; let me know if there bits that I
could make clearer.
This could still return predictable bytes during early boot, though,
right?

Hey, this is cool.
How far away is the capability to "teleport" processes from one machine to
another over the network? Think of the uptime!

I think Alan fixed it.
I've been running 2.4.2-ac3 under heavy load for about a half-hour now under
heavy disk usage (apt-get + 2 kernel builds + Netscape/X11), and it hasn't
locked up yet.

I tried asking this before; never got an answer.
I suggest you just spend 20 hours or so figuring out the basic structure of
the kernel sources. It's a long run, but you'll be happy once you do.

I have the same problem with 2.4.1 (and 2.4.2). Two processes that are
actively using the disk (multiple files) seem to deadlock the system. Killing
the right process (SysRq-K) seems to fix things.
I'm kind of new to kernel debugging. Anyone want to guide me through it?

that we can come up with a new OS
design that takes the best from both worlds. This may require a new mailing
list.
So, my question is this: What are some of Linux's design problems, and what
fundamental changes could be made for a long-run benefit?
