Well i had some questions about the linux kernel compilation and some of you gave me some real goos answeres, however, there is an issue which keeps buzzing my head and that i can't understand! Some one told me i should edit the loop.c file and even tried to explained me why but i couldn't understand. He said something about my new kernel wouldn't be able to compile if two or three lines weren't comented! I didn't understand this fact so i would like to know why should i edit the /usr/src/linux/drivers/block/loop.c file!!!! Plz some one explain me this fact. tks for your attention, Astinus If i wasn't explicit enough plz tell me!
