Featuring almost all the goodies of the new Linux 4.15 kernel series, which was announced by Linus Torvalds over the weekend, the GNU Linux-libre 4.15 kernel is now available for those seeking 100% freedom for their open-source operating systems. As usual, this release comes without any proprietary drivers. The biggest new changes of the GNU Linux-libre 4.15 kernel appears to be the implementation of a new method for building the latest GNU Linux-libre release for Debian- and Red Hat-based operating systems while referring to GNU Linux-libre instead of the upstream kernel.
