added as follows:

<quote>
(x86_64) Using the tick_divider command-line argument may not work properly in
this architecture. This issue will be addressed in a future update of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
</quote>

please advise if any further revisions are required. if not, please close this
bug as CURRENTRELEASE=5.0.0.

Comment 3 Don Domingo 2008-02-20 03:57:04 UTC

adding same release note to "Known Issues" of RHEL5.2. please advise if resolved
so we can document as such. thanks!

Comment 4 Chris Lalancette 2008-02-20 12:39:30 UTC

Ah, sorry, I missed this Release Note BZ.  This should now be resolved in 5.2;
please put a note as such (and please remember that the option is divider=, not
tick_divider=).

Thanks,
Chris Lalancette

Comment 5 Don Domingo 2008-02-20 22:39:03 UTC

thanks Chris. adding to RHEl5.2 release notes under "Resolved Issues":

<quote>
(x86_64) Using the divider= command-line argument now works properly in this
architecture.
</quote>

please advise if any further revisions are required.

Hi,
the RHEL5.2 release notes will be dropped to translation on April 15, 2008, at
which point no further additions or revisions will be entertained.

a mockup of the RHEL5.2 release notes can be viewed at the following link:
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/RHEL5u2relnotesmockup.html

please use the aforementioned link to verify if your bugzilla is already in the
release notes (if it needs to be). each item in the release notes contains a
link to its original bug; as such, you can search through the release notes by
bug number.

Cheers,
Don
