As was already stated on this mailing list, it's a text file that contains memory addresses of kernel symbols. That's it. Here's a small sample from mine: 00100000 T _stext 00100000 T stext 00100000 t startup_32 001000bc t isnew 00100116 t is486 00100127 t is386 0010017d t L6 0010017f t check_x87 001001aa t setup_idt 001001c7 t rp_sidt 001001e0 t setup_paging 00101000 T swapper_pg_dir 00102000 T pg0 00103000 T empty_bad_page 00104000 T empty_bad_page_table 00105000 T empty_zero_page 00106000 t stack_start 00106010 T idt It's relatively useless unless you're working on kernel related stuff (like debugging a kernel Oops message). noah PGP public key available at http://lynx.dac.neu.edu/home/httpd/n/nmeyerha/mail.html or by 'finger -l [EMAIL PROTECTED]' -- E-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST.
