omg jeff
many thanks to you and steven james (and all the people on #uml)
Just commenting the line did the trick on my 2.6-mm5 kernel (using the default uml_net).
Btw, Im a bit mad and optimistic but, is there anybody maintaining [at least for himeself ;)]
an uml+skas patch for the mm patch set of the 2.6 kernel ?
Ive managed to apply them for my host, and compiled it apparently successfully
but for the uml I get a syntax error on a command generated by a Makefile...
Thx

Fred
