    Hi everyone,

    I have installed RedHat 7.3 and wanted to set it up for packet.

    I have recompiled the kernel to include AX25 / ROSE etc as well as kernel
    support for the baycom and soundcard modems. It all still boots up OK.

    I have two problems.

    First the kernel now doesn't seem to be able to find some of the libraries
    it needs (eg for the ext3 filesystem) - I compiled the new kernel using the
    following commands

    make menuconfig
    make dep
    make clean
    make bzImage
    cp /usr/src/.../boot/bzImage /boot
    make modules
    make modules_install

    do I have to specify a different initrd in grub as I do with the kernel?

    I have attached a zip file containing dmesg, messages and .config (kernel)
    for anyone who wants to assist me.

    Secondly, I have had a look though the AX25 howto at
    http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/AX25-HOWTO/index.html and had a look
    though all my install disks for the AX25 files. I have 3 install disks, 2
    program source disks and a kernel source disk. The AX25 files is on none of
    them.

    I got the ax25 ackages from sourceforge. The libs tar.gz file uncompressed,
    compiled and installed OK. I uncompressed the tools package but could not
    get it to compile. A screendump s in the attached zip in a file called
    errors.

    Any help with these problems would be appreciated.
