Is there any constraint for the minimum SDRAM > requirement for linux 2.4.2 2.4.2 was not a good kernel (not unless you patch it to death with 2.4.3 and 2.4.4 stuff) and especially the VM blows chunks. I'd recommend either using the 2.4.9-ac VM or 2.4.18 with either the -aa or rmap vm for small machines. --=-qwfqdknSOkEM779OL7f1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA9tRyaxULwo51rQBIRAhcBAJ4l9E+gElu0Y6YZoGZLpLbVbZ1D4QCfezJJ laDVTy7tciOzu2Rx/EKfDGY= =UqB7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-qwfqdknSOkEM779OL7f1-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
