Works very well here - just finished merging the system and need to figure out how to do the manual kernel install (know the instuctions are here somewhere, but can wait until tommorrow for that) 
Thanks again Redeeman (and company)  |

do you have a reiser4 root partition yourself ?
im going to reinstall my system today, and i really want to try out reiser4, but not if its proven unstable.

my main workstation is having XFS root, but some stuff on reiser4.
though, my laptop runs reiser4 only, + a test box running it completely, and also a production server running reiser4 only  |

I'm confused 
When I do...
I get...
| Code: | | bash: cd: /usr/src/linux: No such file or directory |
But when I do...
| Code: | | ls -l /usr/src/linux |
I get...
| Code: | | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Apr 28 20:36 /usr/src/linux -> linux-2.6.5-lokean1 |
I did manage a bootable kernel (went into the source dir and did what I would do in "usr/src/linx", but ebuilds that require this symlink can't find it either. Got any idea what's going on here  |

either browse to it manually, or perhaps change the link to point to /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-lokean1
ie:
| Code: | server root # ls -l /usr/src/linux
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Apr 24 15:30 /usr/src/linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.4.22/
|

The symlink code I presented was not exactly a "cut and paste" job. I rechecked the symlink and it was pointing as you suggested. But you did get me thinking. I remembered deleting /usr/src/linux and remerging the kernel sources would take care of everything. It's all good now, thanks |

download it from a mirror.
ie

wget ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo/releases/x86/2004.1/stages/x86/stage1-x86-2004.1.tar.bz2 |

@Redeeman
When using your kernel patchset, which base kernel should I use to patch? Vanilla 2.6.5, -mm, or which other patches patched to Vanilla prior to use your patch?
Thanks. |
