USB-Development has started under Kernel 2.1 and  Potato  has  used  2.2
where it had only rudimentary support.  Since Potato CAN run 2.4 Kernels
I suggest you, to try 2.4.8 because the 2.4.24/2.4.36.6  will  not  more
work (there was a heavy changement in the Kernel).

OK, 2.4.36.6 could work, IF you compile  all  NEEDED  modules  INTO  the
Kernel which mean, you will not have any loadable modules.
