[arch-dev-public] Minimal kernel version

Hi guys,

As far as I understand the minimal kernel version we support is
2.6.27. This is at least due to glibc and udev.

I thought it would be worth noting that as of its next release udev
will require kernel version 2.6.32:
<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commit;h=67a77c8bf299f6264f001677becd056316ebce2f>.

Maybe this could be an opportunity to raise the requirement across the
board, and also to make a news item about this?

Cheers,

Tom
