Update, and a huge snip.
I have it working but I need to ask what is with the "make oldconfig"
function? To say it made some mistakes is possibly an understatement.
I may as well have fed it .configs generated by /dev/urandom as its taken me
6 builds so far to pick up and reset the stuff it randomly changed on me,
with another being done right now because it played mix and miss-match with
the hardware monitoring and I now have no cpu sensors for temps etc.
99.9% of this wasted bandwidth could have been prevented if the 'make
oldconfig' worked as expected.
Comments?
Thanks & a tip of the hat to all, 2.6.36 is 5 rebuilds later, running well
so far except for the temps, fans etc.

Win98 is called Win98 because you need 98 MB RAM to install it.
