SKAS0, is that secure, i.e. is it "breakable"? You shouldn't choose SKAS0 mode if your architecture supports the SKAS3 one. Anyway, it's not properly a choice, but now, it doesn't matter. If you don't notice any problem loading skas3 mode, get rid of skas0.

Mmh... I guess you never compiled a Linux kernel... If your host filesystem is ext3, you absolutely need ext3 support built in in the host kernel. Without it you cannot boot Linux. The only way to boot without that support is to provide an initrd image. > > Many Thanks Again, > > Jay > You're welcome, Flavio ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
