I believe that -rt5 had a problem. I never built it so I only heard
about it. Please try the current version -rt12:

This still builds on top of the linux 2.6.14.tar.bz file, just like
-rt5 does, and NOT the newer stable kernel.

Hello all,
I am still trying to get rt5 built...
Now my problem is that when I boot the rt kernel it all looks good - I
get to the screen with the Fedora booting progress bar - but when the
kernel tries to remount root in read/write mode the machine freezes.
I am using the default config file for Fedora Core 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4
except I changed preempt to volentary, processor Hz to 1000, processor
type to Athlon64, and threaded hard and soft IRQ's. i may have forgotten
something that I changed but can you think of a reason that the kernel
would freeze when trying to remount the root device? It seems odd
becasue if it can mount the device to load the kernel then why can't it
remount that same device?
Thanks for the help! (After I get the sweet kernel working I have tr
rebuild the cool ati-fglrx module that complains about spinlocking.
Fun... :P)
