Well, after I discovered that something (not me) changed my Processor type
setting, and after I changed that back to i586, life is a little better.
The system boots, but there are a few irregularities. The first time I
booted, none of my modules got loaded. I did a depmod -a, and depmod
didn't like my esssolo1 (soundcard) module. I've never had to run depmod
before when going from kernel to kernel. Modprobe for all modules except
esssolo1 was successful - unresolved symbols. On the second boot, all the
modules loaded, but esssolo1 is still doa.
Other than that, 2.4.9 appears to be working ok.
I need to go back through the kernel config with a fine tooth comb. Maybe
something else has been altered automagically.
