Hi there,

Does the default kernel you provide have most things turned on as modules?

Are we able to recompile the kernel specific to our own requirements?

Will that have an effect on the auto-reboot features?


Thank you! :thanks:

The kernel configuration can be found in /boot/config-2.4.XX .. you can copy this configuration to ".config" in your kernel source directory then run "make oldconfig" to pull in all of the configuration options. You can recompile the kernel if you wish, just make sure you set it to boot properly. The RapidReboot is a hardware reset, so there is nothing you can do on the server itself to prevent it from working.
