Oh.. down under running, but not under Section 7, question 2
(Building, what tools do i need) http://www.ultralinux.org/faq.html#q_7_2
As i said, not blatently obvious.. Obfuscated yes. A bit of FAQ cleanup
would handle this.. :-)
Perhaps Pieter would be so kind as to re-arrange some sections, or at
least link some of the info from 9.2 up to 7.2 where it really wants
to belong.
(p.s., Thanks Pieter!)

Great lenghts of detail if you read further down on my previous email
in this thread. However, to sum up:
1 hme (built-in) - works
1 hme + 1 qfe - works
1 hme + 2 qfe - kernel oops.
i'm in the middle of getting 2.4.0-test10 compiled and booting
on the machine to know if it's just a problem with the shipped
kernel or no.
