What is an experimental kernel version?
• (ADB) Linux kernel versions are divided in two series: experimental (odd series e.g. 1.3.xx or 2.1.x) and production (even series e.g. 1.2.xx, 2.0.xx, 2.2.x, 2.4.x and so on). The experimental series are fast moving versions which are used to test new features, algorithms, device drivers, etc. By their own nature the experimental kernels may behave in unpredictable ways, so one may experience data losses, random machine lockups, etc.
