Thanks Joe, I was considering building my own kernel. Have seen others here suffer with that process. When I downloaded the kernel kit, there was no readme or doc.
Where is the process of building a LTSP kernel for a NIC card documented to the point where a person that has never built a kernel can do it? thanks, fred >A new kernel will solve the problem if your driver has been built into >it.
