Thanks Andreas and Aivils (and anyone else I may have missed)
I successfully patched and built the 2.6 stable kernel using the Ruby
patch from CVS. The test system is running it now. I am missing most of
modules but I think that is just a hole in my *nix-fu skill-set as the
same thing happened on my test run with the official 2.6
I had lots of problems compiling 2.4 and actually gave up. For some
reason 2.6 was easier but then again by that time I was just running
make instead of make bzimage (which never worked for me). Running make
with no arguments created the bzimage anyway.
Soon I will try to read up more on what the developers here have done
and try to get the multi-user system running.
I'm also planning to get this working with LTSP so will be more than
happy to share notes and test procedures/ results related to this.
thanks again,
Chris Caston
