Francois Just looked at the config file you listed for the 2.1.18 kernel. It looks different then mine in the Block Device section. # Block devices # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD=m # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_XD is not set # CONFIG_PARIDE is not set # CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_DA is not set # CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_CISS_DA is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DAC960 is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UMEM is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_COW_COMMON is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CRYPTOLOOP=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NBD=m # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SX8 is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=16 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=4096 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_BLOCKSIZE=1024 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD=y CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD_BUFFERS=8 CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD_WCACHE=y # CONFIG_ATA_OVER_ETH is not set This is from the /boot/config-2.6.18y that does not use initrd. Maybe you could try adding some of these to your 2.6.18 config file. I have found that using the latest image file works great and saves me all that compiling time. YMMV Regards Wayne -- The problem with program verifiers is that they tend to cheat at toy problems in order to get results. _______________________________________________________ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
