(Un)Fortunately, the box I'm using just got the HDs of my old desktop transfered to it (it's a cooker box, been on cooker since...7.2 I think :) and 2.4.19 booted nicely...but then I tried to use draksound to configure the soundcard integrated in this thing, and it wanted to use a module that doesn't exist in 2.4.19-16mdk, so I got the current .21 and...it didn't want to boot :/ I really hope Pixel or somebody finds the fix for this, otherwise I won't be able to test any new kernels on cooker for a while :/ On the other hand...I haven't lost my CD/burner (it's on one of the non-PCD controllers) with 2.4.19-16mdk, so...we need to raid the RH kernel to see how they fixed this problem.
