PSAUX is not some fantastic French technology, it must be enabled.

My 3COM/USB adapter seems to be enabled correctly but the LCD lights do not
blink. Still testing.

95% there, although I did hack into do_mounts and force fed the proper root
device.

The patch for make that fixes make modules works fine, thank you.


Question: Can I turn REISERFS on and off for testing (does in nun on top of
EXT2)

Yast is a dog.

yes, though you'll also need to mkreiserfs your hard drive which has the
pleasing effect of removing and destroying ext2 and all files stored in
it.... (try man mkreiserfs)

Au contraire, I must say that the ext2 developers are definitely better
nuns than we are.

I think you should use 2.4.20 not 2.5.50. Really, the unstable series
(2.5) is not for people to use, it is for people to test.
