The problem is likely the kernel options.  The diskette version by default
comes with a much smaller kernel, with many advanced features disabled to
save space for the average user.  From the kernel-source REAMDE file:

  The "small" kernels are missing the following features of the "normal"
  kernels:

    IP: multicasting
    IP: advanced router
    IP: use FWMARK value as routing key
    IP: multicast routing
    The IPv6 protocol
    IPX: Full internal IPX network
    IPX: SPX networking
    LAPB Data Link Driver
    Bridging
    QoS and/or fair queueing
    Mouse Support (not serial mice)
    Reiserfs support
    Support for console on serial port

So...if "ip rule" requires advanced routing to be enabled, it won't work
using the "small" kernel tree.  If you need this functionality, upgrade to a
"normal" or "RAID" kernel.

Charles..

I'm playing around with the Dachstein CD version and the Diskette Version,
when i issue the following commmand:

ip rule list

on the Diskette version, i get the following error message:

RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
Dump terminated

when issued on the Cd version, i get the correct results....can this be a
BUG,
i was checking out googles for more information.

seems like they were saying something about ip policy routing was not enable
in
the kernel....

let me know, if this is a bug, or me doing something wrong on the diskette
version

thnks
