Hello matto

Even if a create an entrie with mknod it doesn't work...:s
But i'm a little confused, I think I'm not compiling the kernel correctly.

If I install the SDK kit from acmesystems I do:

$ make menuconfig
=> change the kernel to v2.6
=> I save the configuration file
$ ./configure
(I do this because otherwise there is no /os/linux-2.6/)
then i go to the os/linux-2.6
$ cd os/linux-2.6
$ make menuconfig
=> There I can select to support ext3 filesystem
=> I save the configuration file
I go back
$ cd ../..
there I compile the kernel
$ make
then I flash the foxboard
$ boot_linux -F -i fimage

I think this is the way for compiling a 2.6 kernel with ext3?
I'm verry new to compiling a kernel so if i do something wrong please
tell me:-)
