I tested the current 2.4.27 kernel-image and, yes, it worked much better than older 2.4.x kernels but not yet worked completely well. It booted successfully (in a sense) but I needed to press Control-D at some instance because fsck(?) failed to open non-root (/home) partition (I defined /dev/sda1 as / and /dev/sdb1 as /home). And after boot, I tried to mount /home manually but failed with the message; mount: /dev/sdb1 is not a valid block device I suspected some modules might be missing (or so) but not sure yet. lsmod shows; autofs4 13248 2 (autoclean) usbcore 87912 1 tulip 60392 1 crc32 3488 0 [tulip] rtc 8288 0 (autoclean) ext3 108072 0 (autoclean) jbd 64376 0 (autoclean) [ext3] sd_mod 17064 4 (autoclean) sym53c8xx 88336 2 (autoclean) scsi_mod 119796 2 (autoclean) [sd_mod sym53c8xx] unix 23224 44 (autoclean) Is there any advice? BTW, with the 2.4.27 kernel I tested XFree86 (as a root of course) but unfortunately it failed with the same messages as 2.2.25 kernel.
