Some confusion here. I am not Alan's kernel. PCQ had distributed Linus's kernel 2.4.1 in their Jan 2001 issue( if my memory is correct ). It is a tar.gz file. So no problems. > >Maybe it's a better idea to get a "clean" 2.4.x kernel source from >kernel.org instead of the kernel sources that redhat supplies, and apply >the incremental patches to this kernel. Again confusion. I am not using any kernel distributed by redhat or PCQ Linux 7.1 :-) Peace -- Rajesh : ####[ Linux One Stanza Tip (LOST) ]########################### Sub : Lesser used commands (split) LOST #168 For breaking large files to small chunks, there is already an utility called "split". see man for usage.
