Hi, This is my first time posting to this list. If I manage to blatantly disrespect some "official mailing list rule", I apologize in advance. =]

My question is this: Back in the day of the 2.2.16 kernel, pre-compiled kernels could be downloaded through benh's ppc linux page. I am now noticing the lack of pre-compiled 2.4 kernels anywhere on the internet. Do they exist?

Thanks, -Taylor

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/ http://linuxppc.org/software/kernel/ I've been using the suse kernels with no problems. The 2.2.18 rpm was a breeze, the 2.4.x gave me module problems until I worked out the new names given to some kernels (ppp/dmasound...) and changed /etc/modules.conf accordingly. Also, with the 2.4.x you need the new modultils and the new ppp, both available with the kernels on the suse site. Also, I noticed that after installing the new modultils, if you go to use YaST2, it will try to install the old one again and bugger things up without letting you know it is going to do it. I went to install snes9x and ended up having a bastard version of modutils installed along with it. enjoy! joss SUSE 7.0PPC -- http://www.josswinn.org -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GPA/ED$/GH d- s+:+ a- C+(++) UL P L++ E-(E) W++ N+ o?
