There are some older kernels floating around, but I don't have any Dachstein kernels compiled for systems w/o an FPU. You can find the Materhorn (2.2.13) and Eiger (2.2.16) kernels on my site: http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/Materhorn-386-noFPU.tar.gz http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/Eiger-386-noFPU.tar.gz > I hope this will be the only problem left to solve. > Maybe I should ask Father Stein.

Only sluggish system response when de-compressing LRP files :) Once booted, the system should route traffic fine, as long as you're not trying to push more than a few mega-bits/sec around. > Are there any other tweaks needed ? No...the kernel will load the FPU emulation libraries automatically when it detects no FPU...all other operation will be identical. > I have built numerous LRP Firewalls, routers and even a few 9100 port LRP > print servers. > Does anyone suggest a solution for an email proxy ?

Check out the latest developer docs, including ones related to Bering. They describe how to setup a UML (user mode linux) environment you can use to compile/test LEAF.
