2.4.2-ac18 would not compile on sparc/woody . Do other
2.4.x kernels compile fine ?

Well, reiserfs, iptables and a better vm/mm were my hopes with 2.4.x. 
Guess I'll wait for now.


The potato->woody dist-upgrade went mostly fine. Apart from setting up XF4
it was a breeze. (kudos to all!)

However, at boot I now get these messages (2.2.19pre16):

Adding Swap: 65396k swap-space (priority -1)
cp[171]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 69
chown[206]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 35
mv[209]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 69
portmap[231]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 87
automount[272]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 69
ps[274]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 69

They don't seem to be fatal though, any idea ?

TIA,
