[Sasha Levin]

Synopsis: FEDORA-2012-20225 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Fedora 17 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest Fedora kernel update, FEDORA-2012-20225.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Fedora 17 install
these updates.

On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.

Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y


DESCRIPTION

invalid representation of the memory control information. Accessing said
sysfs file can lead to a kernel panic.
