I hope all is well. -- mv .config .. make mrproper mv ../.config . make oldconfig make dep clean bzImage modules install, boot -- I did start off with a clean config though I didn't do a "mrproper". I re-tested on the MD7.0 box and "mrproper" solved my issue. I haven't had to do this step since the old 2.0.2x days and I feel somewhat embarrassed by this. Thanks again for setting me strait though. I am curious for an explanation from the powers at be to why this hit me now though I've been compiling kernels without "mrproper" for years. Am I just lucky? ;-) --David At 05:28 PM 11/10/01 +1100, Keith Owens wrote: >On Fri, 09 Nov 2001 12:48:34 -0800, >David Ranch wrote: >>I think I've found a bug in 2.2.20.
