Re: [Trinux-talk] rsh and hard disk recognition

[<rau...@ne...>]

it didn't work, it *seems* that the kernel included in the laptop floppy image doesn't support ide and the one in the ide image doesn't support pcmcia :(

where can I get a trinux image that supports both pcmcia and ide?

I have access to a mandrake 7.2 kernel 2.2.17 box, can I compile my own kernel here despite the different kernel versions?
