    The last part, moving vmlinux to /boot is done with gzip -c --best vmlinux >
    vmlinuz (or vmlinuz.2.4.xx) and update silo.conf if required.

    support into the kernel it caused a panic. It appears to be useless as a module
    since it complains that the kernel doesn't include Reiserfs support.
