Sindi, David, 

today I found some time to test your 2.4.31 kernels with my CD burner. 
In order to get it to work with the 2.2.16 kernel I used to load 
these modules: 

 insmod ide-cd ignore=hdc 
 insmod scsi_mod
 insmod sg
 insmod sr_mod
 insmod loop
 insmod ide-scsi

With David's kernel I succeeded after loading only three of them: 

 insmod sg
 insmod sr_mod
 insmod ide-scsi

With Sindi's new 8MB-RAM kernel I could not use David's modules 
(segmentation fault). In Sindi's nopcmcia module packet these 
modules are not included. 

On a hard disk installation it would be probably satifying to use 
David's (much bigger) kernel. For a RAM-disk version, however, this 
will not be possible, because it does not support the 8MB initrd 
file. 

Sindi, did you compile the modules yourself or could I find them in 
a later Slackware distribution? Or would it be easier to include 
the SCSI driver support into the l8 kernel?

Christof
