In fact, the N2100 nand initrd partition has size 0x003e0000 or 4063232 bytes > unpacking them, the difference is lib/modules, which is 868K larger in 23-1 > than in 22-3 FWIW, the main growth is in kernel/drivers/scsi, from 901K to 1933K including 8 extra modules. Other module areas grow or shrink some, but the only files added to the initrd are scsi modules. M -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
