Keith, I do builds in /usr/src/linux, which is a symlink to /usr/src/linux-akpm. The recent `mkdep' changes have broken this practice most horridly. When searching .hdepend, `make' doesn't recognise that nested headers have changed. This is because .hdepend has things like /usr/src/linux/inclu

OK, talked with someone who knows a little more about this than i do. According to him, one reason I may be getting these errors is due to the fact that the HPT370 controller is using IRQ18 which falls in the APIC extended IRQ range (16 - 31). If this is a problem is there a work-around? I don't

Hi Linus, This patch adds "rootfs" boot parameter which selects the filesystem type for the root filesystem. Useful (nay, live-saving :) to distinguish between filesystems which cannot detect damage to their structural integrity. E.g. ext2 cannot detect if the block device has had another filesys
