Weel, I have some free time and I just set up to do my own
kernel compiling. So far what I have is this:
I got a fresh kernel from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.2/linux-2.2.19.tar.gz
Patches from David D
initrd-archive-2.2.19.diff
linuxrc-always-2.2.19.diff
ip_masq_vpn-2_2_18.patch.gz
Patches from Dave C
linux-2.2.19-reiserfs-3.5.32-patch.bz2
tulip.c v0.92 -- depends on pci-scan.o
via-rhine.c v1.08 -- depends on pci-scan.o
and pci-scan.c, pci-scan.h and kern_compat.h
Apparently many of Donald Becker's new network drivers are now dependent
on pci-scan.o. If you use any of the new drivers the Makefile in
source/drivers/net must be modified accordingly.
I haven't tried Reiserfs yet so I can't comment on it other than I have
added it to my kernel source.
I have set up a script to build my source tree for me. I have this set up on
a RedHat 7.1 box with gcc version 3.0. I'm assuming that various compile
environments won't terribly effect kernel compiles, except maybe for very
old compilers.
