RE: [leaf-devel] flash usb - UB Kernel Module
Hey Natanael All, I can not find the UB drivers for the 2.4 Kernel. I'm not a kernel hacker thus there might be a patch floating around - any one?

RE: [leaf-devel] flash usb - UB Kernel Module
Hello Jorn, Hey Natanael All, I can not find the UB drivers for the 2.4 Kernel. I'm not a kernel hacker thus there might be a patch floating around - any one? Not that I know of, but lets make things not too complicated ;) If /dev/sd? works lets just stick with that, the user only has to change syslinux.cfg/leaf.cfg if the device is something else than sda. Some smarter option can always be added later.
