Hello, > Question two: It was just an unluckly coincidence or there is some > know incompatibility between RH 8.0 and vanilla kernels on ext3? I did have major problems compiling vanilla kernels on recent RedHat distributions until I discovered that /usr/include/linux (or something like that) is NOT a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include anymore. In fact it's a seperate package called glibc-kernheaders. I changed it and the kernel compiled fine. One of the symptoms is that you see a lot of warnings about multiple definitions in header files. Maybe this helps you. CU, Jan -- jan@nieuwstad.net _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
