Hello, alot of customers report problems after updateing the kernel. Please, execute 'mk_initrd' and 'lilo' after upgrading the kernel.
BTW, some people ask me about the security bug I mentoined in the 'Solution' section. This bug was a FIN flooding vulnerability, which only exists in the plain 2.2.16 kernel, not in 2.2.16 + Alan Cox' erratas kernel and not in the 2.2.17pre* kernels.
Additionally, some people might experience innocent processes getting killed by the VM (see reports on l-k also). As a first aid, please apply the patch attached. New RPMs will be released soon (just entering the test here).
