Subject: Re: [RFC] kreplace: Rebootless kernel updates

Hello,

> [kreplace] is currently a x86_64 only _hack_

The point of Ksplice is to be a hot update system that isn't a hack.  
Ksplice is quite far along at this point; it implements many safety and 
automation features that kreplace doesn't address.  Is there something in 
particular that discouraged you from using Ksplice?
