We do have an experimental kernel that currently may require manual intervention to install here: http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/experimental/x86_64/ We are using that for some IoT images on x86_64 and there is also one for i686 in that tree. http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/experimental/i386/ Like I said, you may have to manually remove some conflicts with ivtv-firmware and some iwl*-firmware drivers .. it requires a new xfsprogs and you might have to manually remove xorg-x11-drv-vmmouse (it is now in the kernel as a module and no longer part of xorg-x11-drivers) Anyway, I have installed that kernel on several machines and it seems to work well. It is based on the latest 4.4.12 LTS kernel and we will be maintaining it work IoT things. There is also kernel-ml and kerel-lt from elrepo that may get updated at some point. You will likely still ne xfsprogs with kernels newer than 4.4.x though, regardless if they come from our experimental repo or elrepo. Here are the links to the elrepo kernels: http://elrepo.org/linux/kernel/el7/ xfsprogs issues: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1314605 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1314795 Thanks, Johnny Hughes -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
