Last question: is it true that, to compile kernel successfully, I must log in as root and not log in as normal user than "su" in xterm window?
The best way IMHO is to log in with a user account and then either su in a xterm or add a entry to your window manager like this: color_xterm -T Tharwin:Root -n Root -e su -l depending on what window manager you are using it will needed to be executed differently; also, you may not be able to add the line directly to your WM configuration file, there might be a better place for it.
P.S.2: What would it happen if during kernel configuration, I specify a wrong address for a card... say sound card or network card? Will system lock up at startup or it would simply ignore the device?
The system should still boot up, but those devices will not work. -- Andrew L. Davis Network Operations adavis@vprlnk.net ViperLink International -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
