Urs and Stephen,

Great work! I'm sure it will help users with non-PAE hardware.

I just wanted to add that, as noted in the referenced ELRepo page,
kernel-ml is a moving target and not officially supported by ELRepo
either.

That said, Alan Bartlett has been doing an excellent job of keeping
kernel-ml always up to date. I recommend that anyone running it
subscribe to the ELRepo mailing list [1] so that they can receive the
kernel-ml update announcements.
