Re: slink install messed up hamm partition
Hi, John
That was a stock 0setserial, just with the change to irq3 as I mentioned before.
When I updated packages from slink, setserial (_2.14-3) was one that I upgraded to.
So I reverted to the hamm setserial (_2.12-6) and now the change to irq3 stays
permanent. I didn't upgrade the kernel, I'm still running Linux version 2.0.34, so
maybe they're not compatable?
Anyway, I think I'll leave hamm unmolested for now, since I'm actually satisfied with
it and play with slink which has it's own set of problems. Thanks for your help John

probably, but I couldn't prove it
