-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I actually had to recompile my kernel to get it to work with my specific hardware, and it was a very interesting experience. It is not necessarily true though that you´ll end up with a faster kernel. Smaller kernel, definately - but not necessarily faster. If you remove modules then you´ll get a smaller kernel but with the same speed. However, if you remove stuff that is included, but not as a module you should save space and get a better speed.
You´d (not specifically you, ofcourse) be surprised how many outdated file-system modules there are in the mandrake kernel. Everything from archaic Unix filesystems to dos stuff to Amiga and Beos filesystems. Here I only need _real_ filesystems ;-) Best, Sascha Noyes On Monday 24 March 2003 15:06, Ralph Crongeyer wrote: > Recompiling your kernel is not so bad.
