Re: Create own kernel - need to set special flag ?

[jimmy]

Hey,

I tried to make a bootable CD version of trinux a while ago.  I didn't
spend enough time on it and the farthest I got was a boot floppy that
accessed a CD for packages.  I didn't have to compile a new kernel to get
that much working (I forget which version of trinux it was) so I can't
really help you much there.  But, I could help you refine the init
structure a bit, and I would like to see what you come up with.

thnx,

James
