Yeah, I am doing the same way. One more thing, I tried all combos of enabling the CONFIG_NETLINK and CONFIG_NETFILTER options, and the compilation bails out at different places. In the very first place, I did a `make oldconfig', instead of `make config,' assuming that my old configuration will be taken up as is. This produced the .config file which had CONFIG_NETLINK and CONFIG_NETFILTER options _disabled_ . Now I am again stuck with the same problem of the kernel 2.4.4 not compiling. Google search for the exact error messages resulted in mail threads with the same kind of problems I have, but no answers to them. I am now unable to figure out what to do. Can anyone suggest me something ? Thanks in advance. Cheers, --amar -- Amarendra A. Godbole / Microsoft ``Services For UNIX'' / These opinions are _MINE_.
