Dear all, I compiled the kernel 2.4.2 just fine, put it under the path where loadlin takes it from and booted the system... almost correctly. The first error message is: "Cannot find map file." I did a search on SuSE's website and only found this: http://sdb.suse.de/de/sdb/html/keylist.SYSTEMMAP.html Secondly, although the kernel is compiled with FAT (and other filesystems) support, it complains when I issue a command like this: /root# mount -a mount: /dev/hda1 has wrong major or minor number mount: /dev/hda5 has wrong major or minor number mount: /dev/hdc1 has wrong major or minor number Third, there is (or at least should be) PPP support on the kernel but pppd thinks the opossite :-( Any ideas about what am I overseeing? Later on I'll post about the USB support and my webcam if I manage to solve all the errors listed here... :-) Thanx, Martin -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Secondly, although the kernel is compiled with FAT (and other filesystems) support, it complains when I issue a command like this:
/root# mount -a mount: /dev/hda1 has wrong major or minor number mount: /dev/hda5 has wrong major or minor number mount: /dev/hdc1 has wrong major or minor number
These errors don't involve file systems. They say that there's something wrong with your installation. What do you get if you do ls -l /dev/hda1? You should get something like brw-rw---- 1 root disk 3, 1 May 21 14:21 /dev/hda1 The 3 is the major number, and the 1 is the minor. If you get something else, do, as root, rm /dev/hda1 followed by mknod /dev/hda1 b 3 1 hda5 is major 3, minor 5 and hdc1 is major 22 minor 1
Third, there is (or at least should be) PPP support on the kernel but pppd thinks the opossite :-(
