Re: 2.4 kernel availability for Alpha
*smacks himself upside the head* That would be because of sleep
deprivation eating braincells :) I don't run any funky FS and currently
don't use RAID (if I use RAID I use hardware solutions rather than
software) so it sounds like I should be in the clear... Now to just
try and either find a larger external drive for the system or another
Alpha machine I can compile the kernel-image on.
Thanks,
Jeremy
