Re: reiserfs

[Vivek Kumar <vivek@gorave.net>]

Thanks..It may sound stupid but I am new to Linux so pardon me.. You
compiled your own kernel. When I install with apt-get command the kernel
gets compiled by itself (corrent me if I am wrong). Now can you
recompile based on your need if yes then how OR how can you get the
kernel-image and compile it.

Thanks

Vivek
