We've gone ahead and moved the 6.6 kernel into the main tree. As previously
mentioned when this branch first appeared in /testing, on the 32-bit side
there are no longer any -smp labeled kernel packages, so if you were using
those previously, you'll need to switch to using to kernel-generic or
kernel-huge kernel, including the changes needed to your bootloader setup to
load this instead of the -smp labeled kernel. Also, if you happen to be using
a first generation Pentium M chip, you will need to append forcepae to your
kernel command-line options. Enjoy! :-)

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

kernel-generic: kernel-generic (a general purpose Linux kernel)
kernel-generic:
kernel-generic: This is a Linux kernel with built-in support for SATA, NVMe, and most
kernel-generic: commonly used filesystems. It is recommended to use an initrd with
kernel-generic: this kernel for best results. For more information about creating an
kernel-generic: initrd, see the README.initrd file in the /boot directory.
