Nothing that I know of. I started compiling my own sparc kernels when I started using FAI (Fully Automatic Install) because the standard kernels do not include the IP-AutoConf and NFS-Root features that netbooting with FAI requires. The kernel package I linked to (poorly..) in the previous message was built as a post install "Production" kernel. Now that you mention it, I suppose the standard kernel would work well here too. Once I started building my own kernels I basically forgot about the stock ones. There is also something very cool and empowering about using make-kpkg! I have some stuff related to using FAI on sparc systems on line at: http://toolbox.rutgers.edu/~amurphy/fai/ Of most interest is probably "fai-howto". Austin Murphy
