Yes, I am. Here is what it contains:
124 Jul 7 20:09 bin
104 Jul 7 20:09 dev
0 Jul 7 20:08 devfs
24 Jul 7 20:09 etc
72 Jul 7 20:08 lib
566 Jul 7 20:08 linuxrc
48 Mar 13 2002 linuxrc.conf
137 Mar 13 2002 loadmodules
0 Mar 13 2002 mnt
0 Nov 22 2002 proc
80 Nov 22 2002 sbin
0 Mar 13 2002 script
0 Mar 13 2002 scripts
0 Mar 13 2002 tmp
16 Nov 22 2002 usr
0 Feb 2 2002 var
I must confess that I cannot see whether something is wrong here.

Could I just use acpi-20030619 patch from ACPI project page, and apply
it to kernel-source-2.4.21-2? It was not working in 2.4.20.
