I have a problem that is frustrating the dwang out of me and I think
that I have narrowed it down a bit to a compile issue.
I have two kernels running on my machine; the vanilla one 2.4.20-8 that
came with the install of RH9 and a custom one that I added
pcmcia/cardbus support for wifi.
The
txs for the feeback:-)
I got the kernel up and running in the end. I became confused after the
make modules_install stage as the next stage, make install, was not
recommended in the how-to from kernel.org. It recommended using mkinitrd
and copying the bzImage, config and other things to the /boot

At this point the boot says booting Pasco Linux and stops with error 15:

Dear listies,
Do you think that you could advise?
I have bought some wlan cards and want to play with them. The kernel on RH
9.0 (2.4.20-8) has the loadable module support disabled.
Heroically, I downloaded the latest stable kernel (2.4.21) and had a go at
compiling it.
