Both rc3 and rc3-bk.input work. Even rc3-mm2 works, depending on how I boot ;).
This is getting really strange....look:
ll /boot:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 2004.10.05 14:16 vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.9-rc3-mm2

If I boot with the default entry, mouse does not work. If I boot with
the specific entry in lilo for rc3-mm2, it works.

Somebody understands this ? Are there gremlins in my box ?
Why the init order of usblp is dependent on lilo entry ? It does not depend even
on different builds, as if some link order was broken, it is the same
kernel image accessed with a different name...
???
