Sorry for that empty message =) about Suse kernel + gentoo, I haven't tried that, because its not so easy. Gentoo uses devfs, SuSE doesnt - I cant just change the suse kernel to use devfs, then suse will not boot anymore etc. Im using the same config though, that shouldnt make a difference. Gentoo kernel is 2.4.19, SuSE is 2.4.20, and both have some performance patches on them (low latency for suse, gentoo has low latency and some more). Is there anything specific I might have done wrong ? Thanks in advance Peter -- "And what will you do when you grow up to be as big as me?" asked the father of his little son.
