Sorry to jump in here ... but are you *sure* you are running kernel 2.2.6?
While that's the kernel that Slackware 4.0 uses, it is NOT the kernel on the
Slackware 4.0 bootdisk imagess -- the bootdisks use 2.0.something (I think
.37). If, near the end of your install, you selected the option that says
something like "use the kernel from the bootdisk", that's what fouled you
up. You need to choose the "use a kernel from the CD" option (or build your
own, of course).
