"After 6 months of careful integration and testing, I'm happy to announce availability of Linux 2.4.35," 2.4 maintainer Willy Tarreau announced on the lkml. This is the second stable 2.4 kernel released since Willy became the 2.4 kernel maintainer nearly a year ago in August of 2006. Source level changes can be viewed through the linux-2.4 gitweb interface.

Looks like a good kernel for embedded systems or very old PCs. Slackware used to use 2.4 kernels, now it uses 2.6 ones, I think.

Yes. Slackware entered the 21st century 25 days ago with the release of the 2.6.21.5 kernel-based Slackware 12.0.
