Nice. If only you can distribute EL (rhel, centos) packages as well. Or at least the kernel patches...

After trying three different versions of pata_sch.ko and a recompiled kernel, I can't help but to wonder if the problem here isn't hardware related.

Am I the only one trying to get an Enterprise Linux distro running on the fit-pc?
