I assume ... but the bottom line is that I don't know, exactly what they are as I have the basic source tree of 2.4.18 from the distro and the working image from 2.4.18-bf2.4 but I don't know (do I?) what the .config is that made the 2.4.18-bf2.4 and if I could start from that I think I'd be home and dry and could just add RAID and take out quite a bit I don't need and probably add a bit of IP tracking ... trouble is, I can't see how I get that starting config for 2.4.18-bf2.4.
