Compiles and boots fine with my config - laptop including ext2,
 ext3, fat, vfat, reiserfs, iso9660, tmpfs, ramfs, IrDA, PPP,
 Xircom Cardbus (old driver), parport, floppy, ramdisk, loop,
 IDE, ipv4, nfs/nfsd, samba, maestro3, usb UHCI and more. Not
 everything tested and one possibly related warning:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.5.2-pre6/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686
-DMODULE   -c -o write.o write.c
write.c: In function `nfs_commit_done':
write.c:1204: warning: unsigned int format, kdev_t arg (arg 2)

Quite good so far :) thanks a lot,
