    Hi Don,

    First of all I have to tell you that you don't use a valid Internet e-mail
    address. Maybe the address is accessible from you radio lan, but not from
    Sweden, so please change asap so I can mail you direct and not via the
    mailing list..!

    OK, have you read the HOWTO file about compiling a kernel?

    No, you dont type "make the changes in the Makefile file". Open the
    Makefile in four favourite editor, and look for a line starting with
    "EXTRAVERSION = ". Change it to look something like "EXTRAVERSION =
    ownkernel" and save the file...

    Then, go for "make bzImage"...

    But first, change you e-mail address or update your entry in the ampr.org
    domain file... Very annoying not being able to send an e-mail direct to
    you!

    Regards,

    Pontus/SMØRUX
