Before you have him rip out something in SuSE 6.2, I suggest you determine
if he is using stock or suse kernel code. Then determine his dependences
on modules or not.
The correct answer for me was to edit the default .config file after the
install in the /usr/src/linux directory and
- CONFIG_M386=y
+ # CONFIG_M386 is not set
- # CONFIG_M686 is not set
+ CONFIG_M686=y
- CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y
+ # CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is not set
- # CONFIG_SMP is not set
+ CONFIG_SMP=y
Then rebuild and leave everything else untouched.
build the new kernel as a "make bzdisk" adn boot off that for starters.
Second, he has been forwarded to our tech-support people by me for
verification of process.
