- NPTL support : all installed system have NPTL enabled with the

I believe people are wanting the following options for x86 (the rest
I'm not sure on):
* x86 2.4
* x86 2.6 non-NPTL
* x86 2.6 NPTL (optional)
I know I've been out of the discussions lately but I just wanted to
state I'm not the one who's gonna complain if the x86 2.6 iso IS NPTL.
Sorry for my lack of knowledge but I don't understand why you people are
so reluctant with NPTL, what are its drawbacks?
Thanks for the hard-work, I promise I'll test teh isos as soon as I have
more time.
Apparently some programs do not work with NPTL and it's labeled
impossible to convert from an NPTL system to non-NPTL. Yes, they could
use a 2.4 ISO, but then they'd have to convert from 2.4 static/devfs
to 2.6 udev, which is not hard, but why put them through the extra
step? Personally, I prefer 2.6 NPTL as well. :)
