Comment 5 Jiri Pirko 2008-07-14 08:33:32 UTC 
in kernel-2.6.18-92.1.7.el5
Comment 7 Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2008-07-25 17:36:36 UTC 
2.6.18-92.1.7.el5 and 2.6.18-92.1.7.el5PAE boot just fine on the affected
hardware (c.f. Bug 439292).

Should we also ask the people who tested Bug 443853 (2.6.18-95.el5 was
successfully tested in that bug) to test 2.6.18-92.1.7.el5 or is this one
confirmation that it works enough for you?
