Hello Im installing debian by the network using pxe booting, but i found a strange problem, and searched the webb now for an answer. If i pxeboot the installation with the 2.2.20 disk's it oki,but i need som features from the 2.4.x series. So i made an installation with the old boot-floppies, and installed everything i needed. When i decided to upgrade the kernel i got some strange problems. The computer is a motorola cpn5360.
