As of now there is no 2.4.7 kernel from Mandrake - I downloaded it from
kernel.org after another in this list told me supermount was in it and
working. He was mistaken...perhaps not knowing what supermount was/is.
I even tried transfering the supermount "stuff" from my 2.4.3-20mdk source
directory to my 2.4.7 directory but it didn't work. There is no supermount
to be found when running the make (x)config step. Other than that, I have a
configured 2.4.7 source sitting here that I am not going to build until I
manage to get supermount patched into it.
I did go without supermount for a while after trying the Mandrake cooker
2.4.6 kernel but it was a big pain in the ass so I went back to 2.4.3-20mdk.
I guess I'll stick with for a while...
