Drifting off topic somewhat, when I upgraded udev on my firewall box last week I was told I shouldn't have CONFIG_IDE set, so I recompiled the kernel without it and lo! a kernel panic during boot. And yes, I had changed hdas to sdas. So udev is wrong in saying CONFIG_IDE should not be set - on that old P4 box it has to be to get ICH4 drivers. -- Rgds Peter. Linux Counter 5290, 1994-04-23.
