Here is the information again on patching the
Mandrake 7.2 2.2.17-21mdk kernel:
Replace the Mandrake source /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/apm.c file with
one from a generic linux source tree (e.g., downloaded from kernel.org). You
must also edit
the file /usr/src/linux/include/linux/tasks.h
and change
the parameter
#define NR_TASKS
to quantity
3500.
Once the patch is downloaded, you can apply it to your /usr/src/linux kernel
source tree by typing the following as root:
patch -pl -b -d
/usr/src/linux/
Change into your kernel source directory:
cd
/usr/src/linux
Prepare your source compilation:
make clean
make
distclean
Now, you can make your kernel
make
menuconfig
...and in the menu, be sure to set the flag
for
TreLOS Win4Lin Support
Now you can make your kernel image
make dep
make
clean
make bzlilo
When this is completed, edit your /etc/lilo.conf file with the following
information
image=/boot/win4lin
label=win4lin
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
I
had to do things a little different on the patch command but overall it worked
great.

Information Thanks
Hi, I'm new to the mailing list. I wanted to
say thanks to the fellow who posted the information about getting Mandrake
7.2 2.2.17-21mdk kernel patched and running with Win4lin. This is an
exciting product.
