Is there a howto which describes how to make a boot
disk that would be suitable for using with a RedHat
install? I'm using RedHat 6.1 and I would like to be
able to make a custom boot disk using kernel 2.2.14.

gcc-2.95.2 is the best compiler to choose for kernel compiles and I slowly get
sick explaining users that your comments on gcc don't apply for us :-).
Try using gcc 2.95 and running some of the network cards on a PPC.

Indeed, RH is increasingly going the way of MS, which of
course it parallels (commercial software distributor) and,
dare I say, tries to emulate in some ways.
So RH wants to make their installations as easy as possible,
thus we have things like RPM and Disk "Druid".

No wonder I didn't see it :-)
