Can I get 1.2 install kernel?

[CaveMole]

The 1.2 install kernel was able to drive my PCMCIA NIC, and I installed
over the net. However, I cannot get my custom kernel to load i82365.o.
Is there a way I can get the source used for the 1.2 install kernel... and .config file?
Perhaps if I started from that baseline I could build a kernel that works for me.

Is it possible that my choice of the XFS patched kernel is the source of my trouble?

I have tried a kernel with all PCMCIA and NIC stiuff compiled in, monolithic.
I have tried building a kernel with PCMCIA and NIC as modules.
I have tried building a kernel with PCMCIA and NIC totally absent, then
running emerge pcmcia-cs.

In all dynamic cases, when I insmod i82365, I get an error indicating that
some parameters might be mis-configured (I/O, IRQ...)

The monolithic kernel does not install the PCMCIA at all.

What might the install kernel have done differently to make my NIC work?

The problem might be XFS patches thogh not very sure. But a friend of mind had XFS patched kernel and he could not run the pptp client even though it compiled succesfully. Since you have tried so many things, Just try using Vanilla-sources too.

Thats all I can say.

The 1.2 install CD uses gentoo-sources 2.4.19-r7, with this .config file.

Well.... I started again from scratch, without XFS and it worked.
It seems possible that something about XFS messes up the i82365 module.

Note that when I re-built, I could only get it to work with PNP, and ISA PNP
compiled into the kernel. (not modules)

I worked from 1.2.

I could not use 1.4 since it wanted to mount the CD-ROM, and my
crazy Vaio laptop cannot do that from any of the stock Gentoo kernels (so far).
Perhaps with some parameters passed it could, but I don't know what they are.
