This should probably be in the newbie list, but since I don't have time
for both I'll ask it here?

What is the System.map file for? and does it matter if it is not the
same as the kernel that i am running?

I went back to a 2.2.13 kernel so I could apply the hpt366 kernel patch
to support my Abit BP6 motherboard,  It works great hdparm -tT went up
to 80MB/sec and 28MB/sec
Also I no longer get the apic messages that the default kernel keeps
throwing up, and the SMP kernel doesn't crash every 30 minutes.

But every time I run top or some of the other system utilities I get a
message that System.map doesn't match the current kernel.

When I complied the kernel I did a make bzImage and then copied and
renamed and manually edited lilo.  Would the proper System.map file have
been created if I had run make bzlilo or make install?

How can I generate this file now so I can use my working kernel.
