kernel-2.6.9-42.37.EL.c4test is available for i686 and x86_64 in the Testing Repo

All,

I needed to build kernel-2.6.9-42.37.EL.c4test for this bug:

http://bugs.c
entos.org/view.php?id=1634

So ... that new kernel is available for others to try as
well from the
testing repository.

It has Xen kernels too.

It is not too much different than the 2.6.9-42.35 kernel
released on Dec
26th by us to the testing repo (a lot of dm fixes that might
help the
above bug, which is why I built it).  Here is a list of the
changes from
2.6.9-42.35 to 2.6.9-42.37:

Hi!

Which version is this qla4xxx driver?

I'm using qla4xxx drivers with many centos4 boxes.. nice to
have it integrated.

5.01.00-d3

Another issue I want to point out here is that please report
all issues 
with these testing kernels upstream at http://bugzilla.redhat.co
m/

And if you have any issues - please do report them, or pass
them on here 
so we can verify and report upstream.
