Hi,
This is question to the developers:
I'm wondering if there are any pros and cons
in running vanilla kernel with openvz patch vs
redhat kernel with openvz patch?
Currently i have some gentoo boxes with kernel RHEL5 028stab057.2
which with minimal test seems to be working fine.
Other gentoo boxes are running kernel 2.6.18 028stab053.14
So i'm wondering if it is worth switching to RHEL5 kernel?
Thanks
Alex

You can build a frankenstein template with a RH EL kernel xD yes it is possible because this is open source. RH adds some special features like oracle support and another thinks, you need to make all the engineering deployment that redhat does to do a correct implementation of a RH kernel under another distribution.
