The best host kernel is a 2.4 + SKAS3-v3, the best guest kernel is 2.6.9-bb4. I've not tested plain 2.6.10 as guest, but nobody has yet done it, it seems! > I am looking for a stable kernel, that hopefully would not need fixes > immediately after. > The host kernel would be an older 2.4 kernel with skas something. Use at least 2.4.25 with SKAS-v3 (any later 2.4 kernel is Ok, I'd recommend using the latest 2.4 one for the various security issues and improvements - 2.4 is reliable now). A 2.6 as host is not very good because currently the latest 2.6 has problems with UML and the earlier ones have security issues. Indeed, if you use 2.6.10 + SKAS as host and 2.6.9-bb4 as guest, it should work well (though somebody is having little problems). But 2.4 as host is better.
