Yeh. Compiled the kernel after applying 2.4.3 patches and the loopback
stuff works fine with 2.4.3. No Problems at all.
Compiling kernel in Debian is so easy. make-kpkg tool is wonderful. Now I
have got with me 4 deb files of 4 different kernels customised for my
machine. ( 2.4.0, 2.4.1, 2.4.2, and now 2,4,3 )
Thanks a lot.
