    Thanks Rolf

    Yes, I see what you mean when I install a 2.4 Kernel source.

    Does anyone know of a working 2.4 kernel for Sparc 32 or have a recipe to
    build one?

    I've been trying this for 2 days now and the closest I get is failing on the
    final link for vmlinuz.

    Thanks

    John Jarvie
