The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. Update Information: Rebase to latest upstream 2.6.17.4 -stable release, which fixes a security issue which could result in local priveledge escalation. More details at: [8]http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.17.4 In addition, an optimisation was performed to use significantly less memory for several heavily used kernel data structures.
