However because I wanted to try reiserfs I installed 2.4.1-pre10. ppp is now broken. I get the following error ------------- Jan 23 21:24:55 a pppd[505]: Serial connection established. Jan 23 21:24:55 a pppd[505]: ioctl(PPPIOCGFLAGS): Invalid argument Jan 23 21:24:56 a pppd[505]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Jan 23 21:24:56 a pppd[505]: Exit. ----------- I hope it's not my fault? I did not have any problem with 2.4.0 kernel. --------------- Next I also have a dell box running celeron 566 with intel i810. I run 2.2.18 and managed to make my display adapter work with a couple of packages from intel site. I would like to run 2.4. First 2.4.0 compiles and boots on this machine fine. But I could not startx. I gave up at that point but I wanted reiserfs so I again tried with pre10. pre10 kernel won't even boot. It says that I must supply "root=" parameter That can't be right. First I compile and install on the same machine. Next my root is /dev/hda1. Next I did /usr/sbin/rdev bzImage /dev/hda1 That did not work. Next I install lilo with proper root parameter. That did not work. I hope someone can find and fix these problems.
