<p>The MTD code in the linux kernel is updated from MTD CVS in kernel version <B>2.6.newest only</B>.</P>
- <p>The MTD CVS works most at the moment with kernels from the 2.4 series too. The MTD code which is available
- in the 2.4 series kernel source is maintainence only and will not be updated, except for bux fixes.

If you need functionality from the current MTD code for your 2.4 kernel and for whatever reason, you can
use the CVS code and patch your kernel yourself. You need at least kernel version 2.4.26.
Kernels below 2.4.26 are considered as outdated and obsolete.</p>
<p>The MTD community is neither able nor interested to provide support for ancient kernels. Either move yourself
- and update to a recent kernel or get support from your kernel vendor. Do not ask on the mailinglist for help
- with such problems. You are either ignored or you get a pointer to this text. Please save the bandwidth and
- our time to sort out such questions.</p>

<p>The MTD support for 2.4 will be moved to a maintainence only mode in the near future. This will
relieve us from a lot of compatibility crap and lets us concentrate on the further development in
the 2.6 series.</p>
