I'm trying to build a computer with network diagnostic tool, 
https://software.internet2.edu/ndt/ and it requires patches to the kernel, 
https://www.web10g.org/. The latest kernel for which there are patches, 3.17, 
doesn't compile with the patches, so I had to progressively retrogress until I 
can found one that did.

    Not that many memories about this one, but why would anyone try to
    figure what was wrong on a kernel that's been dead for 4 years now
    and after which thousands of bugs have been fixed, possibly the one
    that affects you ?
