In that case, true. But, I only very occasionally mount my Windows partitions. Further, I rarely use my CDROM drive, or my floppy drive, or my sound card, or my parallel port. Since I don't use my CDROM much, I don't need the ISO9660/Joliet filesystems very often. So, I leave those things as loadable modules. On the other hand, my network card I always build into the kernel :). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
