Hello Erik,
The problem lies in the fact that Win4Lin 2.0.x will not run on a 2.4.x
kernel. This is because of some changes that were made to the 2.4.x
kernel series that required changes in Win4Lin itself. These changes
were made to our current Win4Lin version (3.0) but were not back-ported
to the 2.0.x versions of Win4Lin. You will either need to run Win4Lin
2.0.x on a 2.2.x kernel (up to 2.2.18 - 2.2.19 has some of the same
problems as the 2.4.x kernels) or upgrade to Win4Lin 3.0 on your 2.4.x
kernel.
