Kernel Fesa
Fesa requires a Kernel with
realtime patches
Version
Current Kernel used at Cern is 2.6.24.7-rt27. This Kernel has issues with the rt8169 on newer SCU boards.
For testing purposes SCU will use 2.6.33-rt26
Configuration
Network drivers are build as modules.
We are not too concerned about Kernel size.
unpack kernel, apply RT patch, make defconfig,
