I remember some years ago it would take me about 45 minutes or so to build a 2.4.18 kernel with most things enabled as modules that I might ever possible have a use for, and that was on a P3 800mhz with 128MB ram and an ATA100 30GB drive. Compiling a 2.6.10 kernel on my Athlon 2800+ with 1GB ram and a 120GB SATA drive with the features debian has enabled by default in their kernels and a couple of tweaks is usually about 20 minutes or so as far as I remember. > I'm getting half the time spent in system and think that is strange but > I do not really know. Well disk read/write are system calls, so that isn't unexpected. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
