08, even though I have ppp support compiled
into the kernel (not a module). Also, occasionally with this hack I
get flaky connections, I can dial in but it hangs before getting an IP
address. Is this situation similar to yours?

Help!
Somehow this morning I managed to completely toast my filesystem, and I've
spent the rest of the day attempting to reinstall debian... however I'm
running into a bit of a snag. Everything installs okay, but the ppp link
is not working correctly; namely I can only seem to ping hosts on my is

updating alsa libraries and modutils changes but nothing has worked.
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on or suggestions for
further information?

as it did before, thanks! (As an aside:
does this option hamper the suspend capabilities of the laptop?)

I'm not sure here, are you saying hdparm should be included, or it's useful on
all computers; desktops and laptops, so shouldn't be included here? I think

I compiled my own kernel (2.4.18) and tried some new options that I'd not
used before such as devfs, ext3, alsa and hotplug support so I'm wondering
if this could be a kernel problem. Anyone heard of something like this
happening before?
MBG
insane! This page:
http://www.rm-r.net/~meff/i8200/
Was my baseline instruction sheet and he described no problems with devfs so
I figured it was okay. He used 2.4.19 however, so I may try upgrading and
if the problem persists, turn off devfs.
Thanks,

I should have been more specific, the kernel config from the page has devfs
enabled, from that and the lack of mention of any substantive issues I
inferred that it would work fine.
