2.2.1 kernel installation problem

[Dimitri.p]

I biuld a 2.2.1 kernel.
Attempting a: make zdisk failed until I changed the floppy device from
/dev/fd0 to /dev/rfd0. Still the machine does not see it as a bootable
floppy.

Attempted a: make vmlinux and ended up with an unbootable machine.
It tells me that the boot device 8, 1 cannot be mounted, when booting up
from the hard drive. 

If this rings a bell to anyone feel free to drop me a line :)

I'll take another few stubs at it in the meantime.
I can still boot 2.0.33 from a floppy so IO can use the machine enough to
configure it. 

TIA

hamm proposed-updates

[Dimitri.p]

Hi all,
when attempting to install packages from the proposed-updates directory,
some of them complain that libc6.1 (2.7.0u) is required but it not available.

I have not found any libc6.1 2.7.0u as a package to install. 
Is there a workaround or should I just move to slink and forget the
proposed-updates altogether?

Your thoughts will be appreciated :)

Thanks,

dimitri
