Yes and no. Some hardware requires it. Anything that is needed at boot time must be put in a ramdisk that is loaded at boottime. So if the driver for your disk controller card isn't included in the kernel you must load it that way. Or if you use filesytems like resiserfs, ext3, XFS etc that are you not compiled in. Basically it isn't necessarily the model but what's built into the kernel you built and what you are doing. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy? - Ghandi
