final note re last attempt to get 2.4.23-pre5 working on dual hypersparc ss20 with smp enabled I'm going to turn off the ss20 for now and continue to monitor these lists. I'll try another kernel farther down the line. Otherwise, if someone knows the ins and outs of the kernel size limitation and how to measure what's generated by the compile I'ld appreciate the pointer. Thanks, Heitzso
