If I want to recompile the kernel, will I have to download the entire srcdist (all 120M or whatever it is) or can the kernel src be downloaded separately. The reason I ask this is I don't have enough diskspace for the entire srcdist, I have approx 50M available. regards scott ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Scott Mewett | With the lights out its less dangerous Systems Programmer | Here we are now QUT | Entertain us Brisbane, Australia | I feel stupid and contagious Email: mewett@fit.qut.edu.au | Here we are now Phone: (07) 864 2247 | Entertain us Fax: (07) 864 1959 Web: http://www.fit.qut.edu.au/~scott
