Linux 2.6.28-rc2 Kernel Released

Posted by Michael Larabel on October 27, 2008

It hasn't even been a week since Linux 2.6.28-rc1 was released, but due to several prominent bags a second release candidate was issued early by Linux creator Linus Torvalds. The Linux 2.6.28-rc2 kernel fixes non-NCQ (Native Command Queuing) breaking with libata, the work-queue init bug, a struct timeval bug, and an EXT3/EXT4 file-system fix. The release announcement and change-log can be read at LKML.org.
