The patch didn't apply cleanly for me. Do you have any suggestions
what might have gone wrong? I tried to apply the patch to latest
modutils debian source. What do I apply that patch to?

Ug, there are two potential problems I see.
1. The patch I made was against 2.4.1-1, not 2.4.1-2, a solutions to that is to

No need, it applies to the new one with no problems. Saving the mail

Hi there,
I'd been wrestling with an i386 box trying to boot it from the network
and I wanted to share some of my experience and certain things that puzzled
