I haven't seen a PREEMPT kernel build since, although they still use a kernel at least based on the -RT patchset.

My bad again -
**Kernel** version 2.5.x not Amazon firmware version 2.5.y, sorry, again.
That was a loooong time ago as time passes on kernel.org
and a ps:
In the -RT kernels from Amazon that still have the .config info compiled in - lab126 has the RT stuff disabled in the config.
Duh...
No telling what that did, patching the kernel and then "disabling" the new features. I bet it left "cruff" all over the source code.

Reaches for the blood pressure medication each time lab126 comes into the discussion . . . .
