Newer 2.2.x kernels and 2.4.x kernels work alright when taking turns. Just
upgrade to everything listed in the 2.4.x Changes file. 2.4.x actually
requires a fair amount of work the first time. They changed a lot of the
stuff around. I had to upgrade some software, create some new devices,
pass some kernel parameters, etc... found some funky things like how I
wanted ppp support compiled into the kernel but I couldn't have version
info set on my modules. Stuff like that.. always read the manual.
