Checked it with 16M; you're right, it works. Do you know how to fix this,
or where I could get a working insmod binary ?
How do the NetWinder folks handle this, BTW ? ISTR that their smallest
model has 32M, and they do use modules.
JDB
[16M with an 8M ramdisk, a kernel and no swap makes me feel a bit...
claustrophobic. And yes, Nico, I know it can be a *lot* tighter..]
