OK, I've got my wires crossed a bit. Mark - you can pretty much ignore what I said. :-) I started to do a bit more googling, but the firewall I'm currently behind has just died.

System.map is the symbol map and I hadn't come across vmlinuz, so I just assumed it was a typo for vmlinux. Before the firewall died I came across this: If you find a file name 'vmlinux' in the top directory of the source tree, just ignore it. This is an intermediate file and you can't boot from it.

Sorry, I meant to put a :-) after saying the kernel is "often" required. Cheers David -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
