Since I have an occasionnal access to a system equipped with a good line, I began to make incremental patches for these kernels. These patches are about 60 kb instead of nearly 2 Mb. Those who are interested can download them from this url : http://www-miaif.lip6.fr/willy/pub/linux-patches/ac/ Of course, they are not signed nor official, and people who want to use them for production would better get them from the official sites. At the moment, only ac9-to-ac10 and ac10-to-ac12 are provided. To use them : - extract official linux-2.4.1 - apply one of Alan's patches (acXX) - apply one of these incremental patches (acXX-acYY) -> you'll get a 2.4.1-acYY Hope this will help people to test and report bugs.
