thanks :)  just what I was hoping...

One thing, If I do a make [x|menu]config, It will give me all the options
though right?? (You have confused me over "make oldconfig")

Oh and I am compiling it for the fat32 support which is in 2.0.33 right? I
didn't misread a post somewhere?

YAFQ: I got the .deb from the hamm tree, It will work in bo??

(I love acronyms... esp. when you make them up yourself.. :) )

thanks again :)
