That is (like) what I was thinking. I downloaded 2.4.33.7 last night in
anticipation of having to do the lesser kernel. I also grabed patch-2.4.33
not knowing if I would need it.
What information do I need before I compile it and how would I go about
getting it? (known specs I could remember how to get are listed below) I
believe I should compile it before an installfest and then bring it in for
fine tuning.
