You don't need to install the kernel image disk sets. However, you *do* need to install the Linux kernel source disk set. It includes all the header files under /usr/include/linux that you'll need for most everything. Installing the kernel is a very good idea anyway. You can cut down about 150k of the kernel just by removing support for things you don't need. And once it's installed, you can just remove everything but the header files anyway. > I'm at my wits end, and would appreciate any suggestions anyone could > give me to get this thing installed. > > Thanks a lot, > > Jeff Hanks > 00jshanks@bsuvc.bsu.edu > ------------------------------------------------------------------ Barid Bel Medar icarus@berkshire.net Knights of the Cosmos Shayol Ghul Resort and Health Spa ------------------------------------------------------------------ "I am returning this otherwise good typing paper to you because someone has printed gibberish all over it and put your name at the top." - English Professor, Ohio University ------------------------------------------------------------------
