You can give it a try, if you insist on having the Debian modifications. I suppose, with careful manual merging it's possible to get a working mule kernel. However, it seems easier to start from the other direction: download a vanilla -rc2 and merge the individual Debian-specific patches with it (after you've checked it hasn't been applied by kernel maintainers). bit, adam -- 1024D/37B8D989 954B 998A E5F5 BA2A 3622 82DD 54C2 843D 37B8 D989 finger://[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Some days, my soul's confined http://www.keyserver.net | And out of mind Sleep forever
