My understanding is that Natanael tested it only on 2.6 kernels, so 2.4 is still untested. And I need to clean it up too a bit. The only missing feature is that 2.4 module arguments are not passed properly so that needs fixing too. So I would say it needs polishing a bit more still. Also maybe modutils.c:string_to_llist and modprobe.c:llist_find should be moved to libbb in some form? - Timo _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/busybox
