New kernels

xeno74 · Post by **xeno74** » Tue Oct 06, 2026 4:08 pm

Hi All,

I compiled the stable long-term kernel 5.10.271 today.

Download and further information: github.com

It's suitable for old Linux distributions which don't work with the latest kernels for example Ubuntu 10.04.
It's also suitable if you have some issues with the latest kernels.

Cheers,
Christian

Okay. So I installed a new SATA cable. I still could see SATA errors on boot but it was able to boot again. I continued testing from 7.3 alphas to RCs and A6 onward was good. I didn't see any errors in the RC1. Nor a DRM crash like in the alphas. I'll retest my other installs.

I continued testing from 7.3 alphas to RCs and A6 onward was good. I didn't see any errors in the RC1. Nor a DRM crash like in the alphas. I'll retest my other installs.

Could you please connect the disk to another SATA port and test it again?
