OK, in that case, you can get the initrd patch at http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/ac-patches/2.4.3/initrd It should go in fairly cleanly. Jeff |

However, as part of keeping UML up-to-date in the -ac tree, I package my changes up into nice patches, and link to them from my diary http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/diary.html, which says what they all do. So, if you're stuck on an old kernel for some reason, but need something from a newer UML, get the appropriate patch and apply it. For the most part, it should work. Jeff |

That is exactly what I not can do because the project is targeted to 2.4.1. Which UML version did support initrd first? Maybe I can add initrd support for 2.4.1 by looking at the newer patches?
