Try your own kernels. Just download the source, cp your config from /boot to
/usr/src/linux-2.4.31/.config and then cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.30
make oldconfig
say yes or no to the extra hardware or stuff.
Go into the kernel menu with make menuconfig
set * to your initrd and main hardware and filesystem support.
make-kpkg --revision=PC.v1.1 kernel_image
cd ..
dpkg -i kernel-image-PC.v1.1-2.4.30something.deb
maybe if grub let it update your grub config or lilo do lilo -v
reboot and tadda!!
It's FUN!
