Thanks . It can be fixed by compiling the kernel with the appropriate module. If the message mentions char-major-10-135, it's looking for rtc.o (real time clock). When a kernel compiled with rtc as a module, then booted, the error would go away. -- Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
