Hi,

Moving on with the 2.4.24-pre tree, here is 2.4.25-pre4.

It contains an ext2/3 update (mostly forward compatibility related), the
usual architecture updates (this time S390, PPC64/32, SH), osst update,
TG3 bugfixes, amongst others.

Some of the fixes listed in this changelog (the rtc fixes, the IrDA "log
buster" fix and the netfilter MASQUERADE oops) were already in other
-pre's, they got removed and re added for technical BK reasons.

This way you disallow using both as modules.
2.4 config language generally does not support back references, so it is
safer to do sth like this:


dep_tristate 'AMI MegaRAID support' CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID $CONFIG_SCSI
if [ "$CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID" = "m" ]  
   define_tristate CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID2_DEP m
else
   define_tristate CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID2_DEP y
fi
if [ "$CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID" != "y" ]
   dep_tristate 'AMI MegaRAID2 support' CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID2 $CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID2_DEP $CONFIG_SCSI
fi



Using the same variable name in many interactive definitions breaks xconfig.

Ok, what about this patch (against 2.4.25-pre4):

I'm not very familiar with 2.4 config language, maybe there's a better
way to do it.
