Every menu entry can have at most one prompt, which is used to display
to the user. Optionally dependencies only for this prompt can be added

About the time the SCSI subsystem is loaded the hard drive
activity light comes on and never goes out.
The disk is mounted and appears to function correctly:
mount
/dev/hda1 on / type ext2 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/sda1 type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sda2 on /home type ext3 (rw)

Anton,
I had used the 2.6.12 kernel with the latest Inotify. There was no
"I_WILL_FREE" in the any place. And, there was no problem in compilation.
I believe Inotify is very useful and should be included in the next versions
of the kernel. Are there any ongoing plans for this?
Thanks,
Gautam Si

If you try to run `make menuconfig' on a system that lacks ncurses
development libs, you get an error message telling you to install
ncurses-devel. Some popular distributions don't have an ncurses-devel
package. This patch generalizes the error message. Patch is against
2.6.12.

I use on i686 architecture Gentoo linux with XFS filesystem.
Recently it happened to me 3 time that the machine locked,
although at least once sys-rq+b worked. Here is the log
from remote console. I don't remeber having such problems
with 2.6.12-rc6-git2, which was my previous testing kernel.

The kernel never gets told about them. If you disassemble y
