    Can be added if wanted, will require upload of new package atl2 to etchnhalf.
  * 2.6.24 aufs
    Can be added if wanted, will require upload of new package aufs to etchnhalf.
    If unionfs doesn't make it with 2.6.24, aufs needs to be pulled in in order to keep functionality.
  * 2.6.24 btrfs
    Not needed; recommended to be skipped (would require new package btrfs and btrfs-tools).

    Unproblematic, replaces the own binary-modules built in etch by loop-aes itself.

    If squashfs is built with lzma, then this is needed.

    Can be added if wanted, will require upload of new package r6040 to etchnhalf.
  * 2.6.24 redhat-cluster

  * 2.6.24 unionfs
  * 2.6.24 virtualbox-ose
    Will be dropped from the l-m-e-2.6 etchnhalf upload, virtualbox-ose is not present in etch.
  * 2.6.24 virtualbox-ose-guest
    Will be dropped from the l-m-e-2.6 etchnhalf upload, virtualbox-ose is not present in etch.

=== linux-modules-contrib-2.6 ===

  * 2.6.18 ipw2100
    Will be dropped from the l-m-c-2.6 etchnhalf upload, ipw2100 is included in 2.6.24 ifself.

  * 2.6.18 ipw2200
    Will be dropped from the l-m-c-2.6 etchnhalf upload, ipw2200 is included in 2.6.24 ifself.

  * 2.6.18 ipw3945
    Will be dropped from the l-m-c-2.6 etchnhalf upload, ipw3945 is replaced with iwlwifi in 2.6.24.

  * 2.6.18 ivtv
    Will be dropped from the l-m-c-2.6 etchnhalf upload, ivtv modules are included in 2.6.24 ifself.

  * 2.6.24 rt73
    Can be added if wanted, will require upload of new package rt73 to etchnhalf.

== Other updates ==

  * '''firmware-nonfree:''' iwlwifi needs firmware-iwlwifi. Updating firmware-nonfree (0.4) from etch with firmware-nonfree (0.10) from unstable is unproblematic.

  * '''ivtv:''' ivtv needs updated ivtv-utils for 2.6.24, see #448893

  * '''kqemu:''' needs update to build with both 2.6.18 and 2.6.24, but is trivial. upload pending.
