Thanks Peter, Just one more question:
I've downloaded the source for kernel 2.4.20 from kernel.org. I'm assuming that using the config file that you pointed me to, adjusted so that the Math-Emulation flag is on, I should be able to build the kernel that I need? The patches that were in the 1.1 directory: bridge-nf-0.0.7-against-2.4.19.diff.gz grsecurity-1.9.9c-2.4.20.patch.gz helpers-2.4.20.patch.gz linux-2.4.19-openssl-0.9.6b-mppe.patch.gz I assume that I apply all of these to the 2.4.20 source that I've obtained? Is that correct? I guess I'm a little confused as some of these patches appear to be for 2.4.19... Once I've done all that, I'm also assuming that I can use the precompiled modules for 2.4.20 without having to worry about recompiling them too. Could someone let me know if I'm way off track here?
