Hmm, I didn't realize it analyzed the system when building the ramfs contents. Maybe I could just reinstall the kernel while the new kernel is running (or is there an official "hint" mechanism I could use)? [I thought it just included _every_ possible module on the ramfs -- judging from the enormous size of the installed kernel package, it seems like it!] >> BTW, my system uses a SCSI disk with an old Adaptec SCSI card >> scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 7.0 >> <Adaptec 2940 Ultra SCSI adapter> > > That was a great card.

Yeah this system gives me the warm fuzzies, despite the very small disk size; I guess next system will be SATA though, it's just too hard to justify anything else... :-/ Thanks, -Miles -- My spirit felt washed.
