  Hey folks, if you've been following LQ you know I've talked before about
  dropping the huge kernel and moving the distribution to use only the generic
  kernel plus an initrd. After mulling this over for a few months, I think I
  was looking at the problem in the wrong way. First of all, it's clear that
  some Slackware users have been using the huge kernel all along, without an
  initrd, and are (to say the least) unhappy about the prospect of a new
  requirement to start using one. I've been recommending the generic kernel for
  some time, and a major reason is that we've been using the same set of kernel
  modules with two slightly different kernels. Because of this, there have
  always been a few (generally seldom used) kernel modules that won't load into
  the huge kernel. These are things that aren't built into the huge kernel, but
  because of a difference in some kernel module dependency, they won't load.
  The conclusion that I've come to here is that rather than drop the huge
  kernel, or slap a LOCALVERSION on it and provide a whole duplicate tree of
  kernel modules especially for the huge kernel, it would be better to make the
  generic kernel more huge, and minimize the differences between the two kernel
  configs.
  That's what I've done here.
  Shown below are the differences between the previous generic kernel config
  and the one shipping in this update. You'll notice that most of the popular
  filesystems are built in. At this point the main difference it that the huge
  kernel has a couple of dozen SCSI drivers built into it. The modules for those
  drivers won't load into the huge kernel, but they're fully built in so that
  doesn't matter. If you find any other modules that will not load into the huge
  kernel, please make a note about it on LQ and I'll see what can be done.
  So, tl;dr - what does this change mean?
  Unless your root device is on SCSI, if you were able to use the huge kernel
  without an initrd previously, you should now be able to use the generic
  kernel without an initrd. The kernel is a bit bigger, but we probably have
  enough RAM these days that it won't make a difference.
  Enjoy! :-)
