Hi,
first of all, thanks to Andrea. I had a bit hard time to find sources of
his kernel-patches.

Note to the FAQ maintainer: there isn't mentioned the source for -ac and
-aa kernels.

I found that I need 2.4.9 patched to -pre12 and patched afterwards with
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.4/2.4.10pre12aa1.bz2

Using my old configuration for kernel I get after "make dep; make bzImage"

Note to Andrea, while you mention in your post to linux-kernel list
Changelog of your kernel relase, you do not mention for newbies like me se
source site and maybe "How to apply" would help also. ;)

Thanks for replies! ;-)
