I'm running it on two boxes and so far it seems fine. I had problems with 2.4.7 and 2.4.8 locking up hard (Athlon/AMD Irongate systems) about once every day or two (these were desktops runnign X). Problem seemed to be fixed around 9-pre2. It was pretty fast, heck two pre releases came out within 24 hours of each other, but 2.4.9 was a small release - most new kernels have like 8-10 pre-release patches, 2.4.9 had only 4.

Is 2.4.9 "stable" enough? Its awfully fast after 2.4.8. Linus only brought it out because he is away for a week+. (Yes I read the LKML). Oh the Linuxx kernel mailing list a read about various compile failures 'n stuff. But alas if it doesn't work it's only for a week...;-)

Keep up the good work!
