The only thing I know runs that kernel version is my Wii because it needs an old kernel for ppc32 support
Be careful, one day you’ll boot it up only to find some hacker have set new and impossible to beat highscores.
Now that is helpful information - current distros being on 6.x and whatnot… Thanks!
