Hi Fred.

I will do that, though I'm using the version that has a bootmesg program
available,
it seems to pick up som gibberish, which I cannot understand..   Is there any
guide to
what this acutally means ??  - I am intending to involve my self with the
apus project,
once I get up to speed on the kernel source..

I can't get it to boot even without the 53c770 drivers in place :-<..

the stable kernel (2.2.10?) boots fine with no problem at all.

It really bugs me that I cant get the unstable one to boot :-<, I've
recompiled and build
kernels 100's of times in the last year, but the APUS one seems to dislike me
:-<.

regards
    mike.
