I'd like some feedback (via news, mostly, please). I put out new kernels today that *ought* to work on all CPUs (well, not on 386es and not on the 486sx except for the W4 kernel). In particular, the APMA64 hack should no longer be necessary for P4 and Athlon64 systems.
Let me know....
Thanks in advance to everybody.

Also note that files are only on IBM's testcase for 2-3 days, so if you want to try these get them now. Make certain you back up any files replaced and don't try these on a production system. Read any readme file before applying any changes. If your system is working well, and you have no problems addressed by these updates, do yourself a favour and don't mess with this. You have been warned.
The UNI and SMP files are or WSeB/ACP/eCS Pro (SMP kernel) and the W4 files are for post FP15/MCP versions, including eComStation. Only use the SMP kernel on a machine with more then one CPU.]
From the readme file:

First post xr_c005 private. Starts at that level and adds the fixes from 14.100m-14.100o.
Note: Pentium Pros are once again supported here. Also, I changed vmco_s back to its usual size (see note under 14.100e)
PJ30210 - Another -- I hope the final -- attempt to fix doscall1 traps on P4 and Athlon64s.
